shifter question
« on: April 06, 2014, 09:29:08 PM »
factory shifters won't pass tech?

The inspection form says all automatics must have reverse lockout.

The reverse lockout is an important item. If upon crossing the finish line you decide to shift to neutral during shutting down you need a way to be sure the reverse position is not engaged. Also the possibility of down shifting if the neutral position is missed is another concern. Locking up the rear tires at speed is not fun I know from experience.   :cheers:
