How many racers do this?

Joel makes valve bodies with an electric solenoid neutral. He is building me one for a C4. Mike Pustelny also has one of Joels transmissions with an electric neutral. I know Joel also builds a lot of transmissions for a lot of Stock and Super Stock racers.

I used to go all the way to neutral, probably did it 1700-2000 runs, but now I just put it in 2nd for coast down. Coan standard brake V/body.

Doesn't shifting into neutral at the line have something to do with spinning up the forward/direct drum up past its rpm limits? Or do some valve bodies prevent this?
