One of these for the 4th gen f bodies would be cool, and give MGW, Pro 5.0 (IF they are even still in business), and the others some much needed competition.

We have a design for one, but we are not sure that there is enough F-bodies out there that are in need of a new short throw shifter to justify a production run. Our shifter would also be in the $300ish range unlike the other two companies you mentioned. The shifter would be worth the money due to it's performance, but not sure how many are out there that are willing to pay that in the F-body market.

^^^THANKS!
I, for one, would consider it at that price point if it had a better, and little smoother feel than the other two, and did not require any 'break-in'.
I have to be able to downshift as well as upshift fast and positively, since I don't drag race, but DO open track/autocross with this car.
