Default Anybody drive the car with WOT switch?

I'm using a window switch and WOT switch to engage my nitrous kit, and I don't want to use a button. I know there are going to be times when I won't be able to hook up as I don't have 1st gear lock out, and I was wondering if anybody else just pedals it or holds in about 90% throttle to get it going and then hits it. I know there is going to be a certain amount of skill needed to do this but I think I'll get the hang of it. Does anybody see a potential problem with this, or do you do the same thing? Fill me in please.

Yeah, I have an arming switch, but I don't want to have to fool with hitting buttons and switches when I'm in the middle of a pass. I guess I'll just have to run it to see if the tires will hold out of the hole.

Consider a progressive controller...NX FJO for instance.
