You can sign up on the forum if you are interested - I'm not taking any more yet until we get through the testers we have now. We may need a 2nd round though.

OK, I am finally happy with the way everything works. I did a few two step launches today and the two step really helps get the car off the line - even with stock tires. You just need to be able to feather the clutch and practice a bit. The two step will maintain the programmed two step RPM until the clutch is completely released, so if you start to spin while leaving the line the two step will prevent hitting the rev limiter.

The beta test units are almost ready to go out - I have them sitting here waiting on some hardware (screws). I hope to get them tonight and ship these things out on Tuesday. I still need to make an installation manual, but that shouldn't take too long - I will just need to find the time.

Overall, I must admit, this took longer then I had expected but I am very pleased with the results - it was well worth the wait. Our final production module will prove to be a superior unit to the competition and cost considerably less then anything else on the market. Our circuitry to interface with the cars ignition system is designed to be completely fail safe - if something goes wrong this module will NOT prevent you from driving your car under any condition (assuming a spare standard automotive relay is available to plug in just in case the contacts go bad in the socketed relay that is included).

I plan to go to the track this Thursday and I'll try to shoot some videos of the two step in action. I am confident it will lower my consistent 2.1-2.2s 60' times, thus making the car faster in the 1/4.

I'll post up some more detailed information on how exactly the module works in the coming days.

When I get back to the midwest, I'll be coming to visit you again Kevin. I'd love a 2-step again. My S2k had one, and it was so much better to launch.
