Oh right..
I'll ask around, I'm sure I know someone who's done this exact setup. But I had never seen a sequential that you cant left foot brake so who knows.

Oh, I'm sure it physically can left foot brake, it's just hard to get the V10 turning fast enough to easily shift gears on decel.

I just realized that I had some crossed wires in my brain thinking of the actual air shift system not just the blip. I'm pretty sure @treynor installed auto blip in his GT4 and had nothing but good things to say

I had an auto blip in my Boss 302S, used in combination with a standard 3-pedal 5 speed gearbox, and it was great. My GT4 came with a sequential gearbox and an air-actuated shifter (including small tank & compressor, and programming in the Bosch ECU to run the whole thing) and after I get rolling out of the pits I just use the flappy paddles and it's awesome.

That's what I want/need.

Yea, like you said though, still missing the blip for a cable throttle. Guess you still need to drive it like a man :D

Edit: haven't found anyone who knows anything about a mechanical auto blipper for your application. Found some for bikes, which is what the Radicals use but would likely be quite the endeavor to apply it.

I've been talking to Roy over at Pro-Shift. They seem to have an application.

Also, TKO Motorsports out of Reno is developing one, but won't be ready for this season.

Ahh an electric one. Does your gearbox have an output for signal or does that need to be rigged up

It does have an output already.

Pro-Shift has a fairly universal setup, so it would take some machining of brackets and such to get it to work well...

TKO is making one specific for a Viper that should be bolt on and go.

In reality, by the time I got the Pro-Shift one in, fabricated, installed, tuned...I might as well of waited for the TKO one haha
