TRANSBRAKE
 
WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF USEING ONE?

higher launch rpms.if gonna drag race car with nitrous, u can wire it up so when system is armed and transbrake is pushed in, once floored,the instant you let the brake button off, the ride is intenceeeeeeee!!!! '


oh dont forget tooo long,gotta shift probably within a second or two of letting go of the brake 8)

U can find your sweet spot RPM to launch at and be much more consistent.

I THINK THE WEAKEST PART I HAVE NOW IS MAYBE U-JOINTS,I HAVE DOUBLE AJUSTABLE UPPER CONTROL ARMS AND SOLID LOWER ARMS,ALL MOSER INTERNALS IN AN 8.5 10 BOLT.IF I DONT WIRE THE TRANSBRAKE WILL THE TRANS STILL OPERATE PROPERLY?
IM THINKING OF BUYING A PREPED ATI TRANS WITH A BRAKE.

Yes, it will work just like normal.

Put some solid U-Joints in it and once you use the transbrake you'll never go back to foot braking the car that's guarenteed.

Zip.

The "Full Tree" transbrake will work normally without having the solenoid hooked up. If you buy the "Pro Tree" transbrake, then you will need to have the solenoid hooked up so that you can activate reverse. (You have to push the button for it to back up while in reverse)
