Ya know, I doubt that you'll find many Racers that are as hard-core as I am when it comes to interpreting the rule book. And I know that I haven't raced in SS since before most of you were born but I still have my SS number so I'm gonna guess that I can comment on this deal.
I've read the rule book on SS auto transmissions and I don't see why a "fluid dump" would be illegal. If you want to start splitting hairs then in reality a transbrake is a "fluid dump" and for that matter, so is an E-shift. NHRA seems much more concerned as to how you're releasing that transbrake then what you're doing with your pump pressure. Now if you are in some way manipulating your pump pressure to cause some kind of a "delay" in your transbrake release then I would think that you're doing something illegal.
Just my $.02.
