This situation could be cured without changing the rule. Just add to the rule that if a electronic transmission is used it must be a production electronic transmission. No adding electronic shift solenoids to non electronic transmissions. Nobody ever produced a production electronic shift 3 speed automatic. So NO 200,904,C-4. Unless you want to shift manually.

adjustable buttons...electric or air shifters....AHFS games...how fun are we having anymore...really? everyone is looking for a way to get the car/driver more concistant...(wich is bracketracing to me) rather than try to go faster(because of the current factoringsystem awards that in a fine way)..that stock and superstock became sort of a bracketrace back in the days was needed because the diversity of cars and classes became alot better ofcourse,but when you hear some people in this class want to get rid off heads up runs,change the redlight rule,keep asking for driving-aids...i just dont know anymore...dosen't sound like the same type of racing and group of people that i used to know and love....
sorry..again...this post was about why some could have e-shift and others not....i support the idea that it follows :can only be used in transmission that had them from factory!maybe we will se those newer trans on older cars... Last edited by bsa633; 08-28-2007 at 05:48 AM. |

>> Why hasn't anyone answered Woodro's question about stick cars?
Norton probably is, but he runs a Pure Stocker. Nobody's answered the question about why the E-Shift is a "safety device". Woodro -- has NHRA changed the jacket rule, or do they still have 9-10-11 sec. Stockers with guys wearing t-shirts? While it didn't become an issue, my Volare has been on fire, and while I always wear my fire jacket, it's made me re-think some stuff. I've since moved where I have the fire extinguisher mounted so I can get to it quicker/easier in an emergency. Back on topic -- Louis brings up something I was going to ask last night. Are these late model computer cars running aftermarket transmissions, or are they running "performance built" versions of the stock transmission? i.e., Could the computer shift the transmissions that are being used in these cars, or would people have to manually shift them if it wasn't for the E-Shift?
