Since getting into reverse fast is absolutly critical at the GNCC races...

Anyone think of blocking off the parking brake, then runing the parking brake cable to the reverse lockout actuater arm (where it comes out of the cases).

Would make it like a honda setup, where u push a button while pulling in the clutch...then it would allow it to go into reverse.

Getting into reverse at a GNCC fast is totally critical, when you come to a bottleneck, you need to get into reverse before you get blocked in by he guy behind you.

It's already pretty quick, I think I'll leave mine alone personally. I think it works great how it's set up anyhow.

LOL. They drive OVER whatever gets in their way. Seriously tho, if you are in their way they will ram into you and push you out of the way. When they are forced to backup tho, they do like everyone else....get off their bikes and push. I have seen them do this on several occasions. What an advantage to someone with reverse!

I think the quickest, easiest reverse ever would go to polaris with thier set up on the Expedition.........push a button and shift down past neutral and your going where you just came from......
