They looked at the tach and used the right foot as a control.

Go to a NMRA event 90% of our heads-up racers are stick and do not use a 2-step. Sorry you feel that way. I'm a stick racer myself and do not use a 2-step. Sorry we can't make everyone happy but we try.

Thats how its done.....I raced nothing but 4 speeds in the 60's and 70's (except for one 65 426 Street Wedge Plymouth) WITHOUT electronic aids. The last was a SS/I STICK (Chrysler A-833 trans) 68 Camaro until 78. Then I went to a glide (no trans brake or 2-step) to keep the 12 bolt alive a little longer. We were not allowed Danas and 9" fords in a Chevy back then.
