line locks.. can i get some feedback on what you all with the line locks opinions are? I would like to know if it's an easy install, if those of you with m6's needed some getting used to them for take offs at the track.. and any other comments you all have about it. thanks :worship:

It's a very easy install if you get a kit with the prebent lines. I have the SLP kit which works well but the solenoid is not rebuildable. The more expensive kits have rebuildable noids and would be worth the extra money if you use it alot. I don't think any of the M6 guys are lauching off the line lock just using it for their burnouts. 
BTW: SJM Manufacturing make a few different line lock kits. Check them out over there.>>>>>>>>>>>

Yea... I am not sure about launching with line lock? Line lock, locks the front wheels so you don't have to hold the break while doing a burnout. I would like to see a launch with line lock though!
I don't have line lock, but I see a lot of people at the track doing 10x better burnout than me
I would recommend getting one

if it is any concern, all our kits have rebuildable solenoids...
differences from all three designs are mainly cosmetic. All perform equally well. Obviously, for this reason, the B-001 kits would be considered the "best buy". We offer them in a variety of configurations for the guys who "have to have" one particular style over the other.
I think you'll find most kits which include pre-formed lines are all going to be relatively easy to install.
There are differences in what is included in the different manufacture's kits. Only the "better" kits are more complete and include a remote mounted master control switch as well as an LED indicator.
This a very important feature as without it, your LL circuit is ALWAYS active, accidential activation can occur. This not only reduces the life of the solenoid, but can cause a hazzardous situation.
All kits are in stock ready to ship. We ship within 24 hrs of payment via UPS. Tracking info is always provided.
Hope this helps,

They all work exactly the same; there are no discernable differences in performance between any three solenoid choices. Besides the solenoid, the kits are all alike and contain the same components.
I suggest the LS1-B001 kit as it is the least expensive in price and does the same thing. The differences in price lies with the solenoid costs themselves.
The only reason to choose the other two is if you like the way one of them looks in comparison to the other. It really comes down to an estetic difference.

btw,
you'll find that they become addictive. You'll end up using it more then you think. They are fun at stoplights or parking lots for a quick smoke-show to you friends, good for the quick warm-up of tires for an "unexpected race"
