I give up. ( Track vid and slips inside )

Sounds like you have never tried temporarily holding back some clutch clamp pressure. Properly done there's no need for slicks, probably no need for adjustable shocks. Since this method is basically matching the clutch's hit to the engine's power instead of launch rpm to the track, a 2 step isn't really that big a deal either. Clutch drops are no longer violent, you will be able to 60' better thru the 10 bolt than you would with an automatic.

Also what happens during the 2nd gear change?
Thanks in advance.

I completely missed the 2 step part. I agree wholeheartedly. It's incredibly painful leaving the line in vacuum at the track. You can hear in the video, that it doesn't come alive til about a 100ft out.

Maybe he meant through an automatic. Because i can ASSURE you that 1.3s ain't happening with a full weight 6 speed f body. And you ask about the 1-2 shift....tried ripping the 1-2 shift about a month ago. Didn't go very well. Btw, I agree with what you said, I'm just giving my personal experience. Hopefully this won't be an issue much longer, just placed an ad in the classifieds for a Th400.....it's time.

Who says you have to leave on boost to cut a good 60'?

If it can be done with an automatic, it can be done with a stick. It's all in matching the hit of the clutch to the engine.

This guy is a turbo customer using my slip controller with a T56...
Also have a 1500hp triple disc Honda customer, stock body record holder that runs 7.88 @ 190
Here's a slip from a customer's NMRA Coyote Stock car record run. It's NA, but they run a factory sealed crate engine, spec tune in the ecu, spec transmissions/ratios, and 10 or 10.5" single disc diaphragm clutch. Previous best was 9.831 @ 131.25 1.389 60'...
I also had a customer in the UK with a 1200hp Subaru Impreza. He was having trouble breaking parts and had run a best of 8.20 @ 173. He added a slip controller and a month later had upped his best to 7.74 @ 179.2 with a 1.29 60'.

Hey genius, your video you posted shows the 8 second mustang leaving on a 2 STEP! You CANNOT run a good time in a manual transmission turbo car without a 2 step. If you're really going to go around trying to pimp your product you really should make sure you understand the discussion before posting random crap about people supposedly running your stuff.

I understand that as a business owner, you have to market/push your brand. But i really think you are going about this the wrong way. Not hating on your hustle/ambition, just making an observation.
