Wow... I never knew an automatic shifted on its own!! That's amazing. 2 points for captain obvious right here.
For those who ACTUALLY have some technical information that will aid me in what I am trying to do... I would like to put some sort of ratchet shifter in the car for the rare occasion that I might roll race. I obviously have a large converter in the car so when I go from a roll it needs to be in 1st for a 20 or 2nd for a 40, not just D or OD. The lazy converter make leaving from a roll a PITA unless you are around 4k rpm with my set up. If you have the stock shifter, it is very likely to bump from 1st to OD or N and miss the gear.... thus the end of the race and possible damage to the transmission.
Hey captain obvious, you do know that the internals of any automatic will turn 2-3x the rpm of your motor if you go to neutral under load. So say I bump it to N at 7k... do you think almost 20k rpm is good for the clutch packs?
It may be an "added" expense to you, but it's insurance to me.

I've seen one or two cars here with an aftermarket shifter..not too many pics around. Try a google search and see what comes up for ya.
My question to ya just for ***** n grins is how hard is the car leaving from a 40 roll? A friend of mine has a 4400 stall and his car takes forever to get moving from a roll.
X2..select gear, let clutch out, hammer it. Repeat process until *** whooping administered..

It takes forever to get going if I leave at 40mph in OD or D... with the 3.73's 40mph in 2nd puts me around 4200 and it takes off pretty hard. From 20 in 1st is totally different, it gets kinda wild if the QTP's are cold.
