Thanks for the confidence builder. I guess I'd just like to have all my ducks in a row with all the info I can because I have so little time to finish the car before Oct 03 (the date that drag race season stops and sled season starts) and hope to have a good enough first experience with the Duster at the track to keep a smile on my face till spring. BTW what is the last race day at your local track? Kev

I know what you mean, im trying to get mine done and atleast take her for a spin before it becomes winter here...like i said, install the line lock where you think it will be comfy where you need it, learn without it, then use it...in my opinion, a line lock and a 2 step is almost mandatory if you want to be competitive in a stick car...the line lock allows you to hold the car steady at the line with your foot on the clutch and other foot on the gas to bring up the revs...the two step allows you sit on the launch limiter with the gas, and then gives you a rev limiter while shifting through the gears in case you miss a gear and really overrev...Im not sure when the last race day at my local track is, but im not too concerned about getting there this season..im just trying to take my time and put the car together the right way and plan everything out so i dont have to do it twice, even if it means i dont drive it this year (but i really hope i do)..

also check this link out....its a question i asked on something similar...its a really good forum for info on stick shift race cars, so browse through it if you can...alot of your questions will be answered there if your new to stick shift drag racing
