Transbrake woes

Is this a Trans King valve body with the inturnal shifer? If so I ran into this problem on a dragster I drove for a while, After the burnout you depress the TB button to backup and you think everything is OK when you put it back into low but you have to slow down and stop in Nutral put it into drive then put it in low stop in each gear for about one second and it worked fine after that. I put another button on the wheel so backing up would not activate the shift timer or the TS timers and never had another problem. I don't like the TK internal shift cause you really can't tell if it has shifted on not. With a solinoid shifter I can look down and see what gear it is in. Hope this helps, Mike
