    That is a pretty sweet set up. I would enjoy having that car, well, everything but the tickets. Did you make it to donut corner? Is that how all the gravel gets stuck up there and left at BIR? 🤣

    • @MickelsonRacingChannel
      @MickelsonRacingChannel  2 года назад

      It must be! I can’t believe that much gravel gets caught up in there, especially after jacking it up and cleaning it out. Ridiculous! I have to find a better system for sure…

    Ive been thinking about getting a box for mine. Right now ive just changed my wot shift points to shift at 6400 instead of 5900rpm.

    • @MickelsonRacingChannel
      @MickelsonRacingChannel  2 года назад +1

      I think it would be equally beneficial to change shift points if all you do is drive it. That’s how I felt after getting the box. It’s cool to pick your gear, but the most beneficial is to lock it into a gear during burnouts or other shenanigans.

      @kg_canuck Год назад +1

      Considering it's just a box with two buttons, I imagine you could do some custom wiring extensions and rig up paddles to the same buttons. Doesnt matter to the box where the buttons/switches are located, just that an electrical contact is made

    • @MickelsonRacingChannel
      @MickelsonRacingChannel  8 месяцев назад

      Shift box works as intended! Select the upshift or downshift button and it will shift with a slight delay and stay in that gear. I think it would be more user friendly with the paddle shift kit.

    • @MickelsonRacingChannel

      The shift box allows you to hold a specific gear. When drag racing, it helps to hold a gear in the burnout box. That’s why I did it.
