Sure not issue for most here, Backup button or reset delay after backup seems like extra to have to do. I decide to do away with need for doing either, Added a wot switch that sends power to solenoid when in reverse. Have switch to energize it, Flip cover for switch and light should ensure dummy in seat not leave powered plus have to be in reverse at same time.

make offer could use money and love giving a show.

Fuuny you mention since had a track worker come into locals gathering area, Country store. Was maybe 3 years ago. He was telling everyone nobody backed up as fast except Roy Hill, No idea who he was but seems he rmembers me brackey racing the Nova and that wasw 40 years ago.Plus do not recall backing up alot while running Nova sionce rarely burned out across line. I did smole the hell out of few sets when new but did not back up a lot.

Maybe another name for switch but is what I found them listed as on ebay and amazon.

It's called a micro switch can be wired either normally open or normally closed for the circuit. Basically the same as a neutral safety switch.

I eliminated mine with a standard brake valve body.
Select reverse, I have reverse.

Well ifdid that Goob I would have wasted mioney on liute weight aluminum valvebody,LOL

Yea knew actual name but is listed on as NOS WOT switch and was having brain **** while looking for them. Seems to work fine excvept gave me reason to build another shifter using lighter pieces and less nu,mber of pieces for even lighter setup.I mean 2 houlrs work bfor better and 1.5# lighter is good gtrade off right. Hell beat eatchi9ng tv snacking on **** bad for diabetes.
