Yeah but if you are goign to spray you may as well spray all the time! lol If you want to totally stop the turbos slowing down betwen shifts then investiage the Subaru WRC 'Rocket box'. 
On a serious note. Im pretty sure flat shift wouldn't be that hard to implement and it WOULD make a difference! Not sure how they work with normal gearsets but they are amazing on dog boxes and even better on sequentials

: We use G-Force all the time and have had great success with them. It might be due to the fact that we make sure the tolerances are perfect.
: the car has a full 10 point cage with a few extra bars in the rear for the parchute.
: No we arent running E85
If this tranny doesnt hold then we are putting something like a Liberty 5 speed in it.
I am not really worried about losing boost between shifts lol, and I do plan on spraying it most of the way down if needed. This car isnt like a suburu. There is no replacement for displacement. Remember I have 461 cubic inches to play with.

LOL @ all the internet "advice" directed at the fabricators of fastest LS1 in the world. I think, just maybe, that LMR knows what is doing an is basing their build on R&D not just theory and speculation. 
Everyone who puts a build like this together is aiming for the title, whether it happens on the first or second or third attempt is something that takes time to sort through.
How's the saying go.... walk softly and carry a big stick? I'm guessing they'll let the results speak for themselves.

I'm guessing that their goals are probably for them to focus on and shoot for.
