The thing to do is to use a line lock plumbed into the hydraulic clutch line in conjunction with a 2-step, then leave off a button. Push clutch in, hold button. Button activates the line lock and holds the clutch, at the same time launch limit of the 2-step is activated. Tree comes down, release button, clutch comes out and launch rpm is gone.
Now hit your shifts....
Don't know if its class legal, but it would take the guess work out and allow you to leave on the wood and off a button, very similar to a trans brake in an automatic. You shouldn't need the brakes to hold the car at the line on a stick car, but you could wire in the line lock as well. You could have arming switches for the line lock on the brakes, line lock on the clutch and the 2 step so this way the one button on the shifter could do everything depending on which arming switches are "on".
For burnout: Arm the brakes linelock only or brakes and 2-step (to control burnout rpm).....
For launch: Arm all three or just the clutch and the 2 step....
For scaring the ricers on the street: Just the 2-step.....hahahahhaha
For the old school mechanical linkage crowd, like my Nova......instead of a line lock on the clutch how about a huge magnet? Kinda like this one?
