Default race logic traction control...?

I was curious about this system and what you guys thought about it. It sounds pretty cool. It has adjustable traction control, a two step like device, a full throttle shift device, and more...

sorry if this isnt the right area for this thread. I just wanted a more technical opinion

check out the technical part of the site

Was looking at it about a year ago.
Haven't heard any one with an LS setup with it.
It's not cheap either.

yeah, its expensive, but I think it might be worth it depending on the application. I'm just looking for thoughts and opinions.

Popular in Supra and other communities where there is no stock setup. The launch control and full throttle shift apparently works very well with turbocharged engines, allowing WOT on the starting line, at launch, and during shifts.

For an NA engine, the launch control could still help traction off the line, however it would not be as dramatic.

I've been running it for past year on a Monaro, with twin-screw supercharged LS1 at 550 fwhp and >500ft-lbs fwtq at 2,000 rpm. Fantastic system for putting pwr to the ground in wet and dry - set on low levels of drift, the wheels will squeal from limited spin while making straight line progress. Opens the bikers eyes! Used by several LS1 (and maybe LS2) powered UK cars and some in Oz.

I'm glad to hear someone with that kind of experience with it. I'm considering it for my project a little ways down the road when I get a little more cash. Thanks for the input.
