j par I can see that you and yellow rose don't see eye to eye but he is right here. I will try to describe how I have my 2 step set up ( don't have the computer skills to make a drawing, sorry). What you need is a long arm nitrous micro switch( I used a nitrous switch because there suppose to be quicker) and a 5 prong 8961 relay, on the relay there are 5 numbered prongs( 30c, 85,86,87, and 87a ). Hook the 2 step up to the ignition box(I use MSD) hook black wire from 2 step to good ground, the red wire from 2 step goes to the #87 prong on relay. Now hook a jumper wire between the #87 prong and #85 prong okay now run a wire from #85 prong and T it into the wire from line lock button to the solenoid(this is the wire that activates the solenoid). Hook the#86 prong to ground, Hook the #30c prong to the micro switch and 12v power to other side of micro switch. Now I have 6" inches of travel in my clutch pedal, there is 2" of free play on top and my clutch starts grabbing about 2" from floor or higher depending on RPM. I set the micro switch to release at 1 1/2". Okay now you pull to the line, you push the line lock button( which is now the actuation switch and line lock)stage the car push clutch to floor(hold to floor) release line lock button hold throttle to floor dump clutch on third yellow. which opens micro switch which kills relay, all wiring is back to normal and you are on your way down the track with better reaction times and better 60' and more consistent 1/4 mile ET because you are leaving at the same RPM every time. Yes you will probably go more rounds once you get it dialed in.
thank you for the idea and I believe I get what you're sayingj par I can see that you and yellow rose don't see eye to eye but he is right here.

I'm going to try this one time so as we stop making each other look like Jack Wheels.I have seen it done with a very simple push button starter switch!!!!!
It need not be expensive or exotic. Just a momentary on switch.
I run my 2 step off a switch on the shifter handle. I have it wired in line with my line lock to hold the car front rolling at the line. It may not be as consistent as having it on the clutch pedal but I've had very good luck and been pretty consistent. I started at 3000 rpm but had a bog so upped it till the bog went away,now set a 5500
It's been hooked up for a week now and working fine. Just not how most would do it. Thank you...MSD has a wiring picture of a two step wiring, very simple setup. easy to install.
FWIW, I run my two step and line lock off of the button on my shifter. I launch at 5400.

Some don't get it ! I do. Sometimes the olive branch is diseased, it is best to just cut it off.I'm going to try this one time so as we stop making each other look like Jack Wheels.
Here goes I think you think too much of my car and what my purpose is and what I'm doing. The advice that you give to me a lot of times it's far too technical for me I don't know half the terms that you're talking about and certainly don't know any of the people or names that you drop. I don't have a clue what you're talking about a lot of times. This is just purely a hobby to have fun. I am not racing any kind of Championship. I'm not worried about anything except for coming home safely. I just plain go to have fun as a matter of fact to make this point hit home as I can, one of my friends said one of the other wives is bringing pulled pork sandwiches for us all and half my thoughts go to the racing and have my thoughts go to that yummy food. that's how dedicated I am to racing a track. I'm just there to have fun and race along with my buddies and help if I can.
If I went to the track and know absolutely everything about the car and absolutely everything how to drive it and how to set everything up I would probably lose interest very quickly and move on to another Hobby. As it is now I get to learn break things at times and hopefully try to make different adjustments. I appreciate the fact that you're trying to help. I really don't need to know your Bona fides or what your car looks like but if you come down to the track just come over and say hello and if you can be of some help I sure appreciate it. If you don't want to be of help that's fine too. I really don't know what else to say here I'm not out on this form to make enemies or piss people off I'm just here to have fun maybe share some of my experiences and maybe learn a thing or two. But not everything. Lots of times I like to learn things on my own it's part of the fun of doing it.
