Is there a TB button that takes button pressure out of the equation? Not ZForce.

It's not the button, it's the thumb that holds it down. Bob | |||

Any advantage between the micro switch TB button over the large red mushroom button??

the best at what we do uses the large red mushroom button | |||

Isn't the mushroom just a piece of plastic installed on a micro switch? They make a piece that mounts on the micro switch that you can adjust that you place your thumb in like a tray and just the center of your thumb contacts the button so you're not feeling the pressure of the switch. | |||

I agree with Ed that many are using large red mushroom type, especially dragsters. But looking in door cars I also see many smaller mushroom micro switches as well. If not already, consider purchasing a tabletop practice tree and attach to what you presently have in your race car. I purchased a Top Bulb RT Master Course from Luke Bogacki and thought it was money well spent. It answered some questions I had and gave me different ideas and release methods that I believe are helping. https://thisisbracketracing.co...ectory/reaction-time | |||

I agree with Ed on the mushroom button, it's large enough for my crappy eyes to find it. I'm still trying to find the horn button. Bob | |||

I do have a full size practice tree that i have mounted on the wall at IHRA legal hight. I sit in my dragster and use my TB button on my steering wheel to hit the tree. I do practice Brian Mollison 2013 American Dragster 2020 Sumerduck Dragway VA Top ET Champion 2017 Sumerduck Top ET & SSS Track Champion 2017 MAC Top ET Track Champion 2009 Sumerduck Dragway Va Top ET & IHRA SSS Track Champion 2008 IHRA Division 1 Top ET Bracket Final Runner-up 2007 Colonial Beach Dragway Top ET Track Champion | |||

I have a full size tree in my shop that I use while in the car. I hook it to my t brake wire so I can use my delay box and bump buttons. I have the big red mushroom now but I have found one problem with it or I should say in my release. I flip my wrist on the let go and if I don't come straight off, I'm .020 slow as my thumb slide up the button. I used z force for a couple years with a lot of success but lost the tree early this year and went back to releasing. I am going to mess around with the micro switch or possibly changing the way I let go by bending the elbow and staying with big Red. | |||

A midwest racer that wins way more than his share uses the back of his hand on the mushroom button instead of his thumb. I tried it and didn't like it, probably didn't give it enough time though... 272" Spitzer 540 Chevy The Blower Shop XR1 FTI XPM Series Converter FTI Level 6 Powerglide 3.69@199 .916 60' 2017 Bradenton Heads Up Madness Open Outlaw Champ 2018 PDRA T/D #5 2019 PDRA T/D #2 2020 Retired From T/D Competition.... 2020 Bradenton NMCA Hemi Shootout Winner 2021 getting back into bracket racing with a Gen3 Hemi powered 87 Cutlass. | |||

Micro switch takes next to no pressure to hold it down and the release throw can be very short. Burt I'm So Proud To Be An American And Not A Democrat... | |||

I like the Biondo small mushroom best of all I have tested. 3000+ test hits with 3 buttons to find what I liked. This button was least sensitive to your placement of whatever you you're using to press it, in my findings. I modified my technique to minimize pressure related variance by using the side of my thumb and simply rotating my wrist to actuate the switch. "Despite the high cost of living, it remains popular."
