Todd,,The rule has been grossly mis interpeted for the last few year,,,,,tech officials have explained the rule was wrote to address the point that there could be no delay between the release of the button and the item it controled,,,,,,OK,,,here is the confusion,,,,,,,,the release of the button is NOT WHEN YOU MOVE,,,but WHEN THE BUTTON RELEASES,,,,,,now that plainly is the dumbest explaination of anything I have ever seen,,,,,,,It was explained to me that it doesnt matter if the button sticks,,,,as long as when it does release,,,there isnt any measureable,,adjustable delay,,,,,,,,,,,so help me,,there must have been an attorney and a hypnotist convince a tech offiicial of this,,,,,,now they have awaken and realized,,,,maybe we were wrong in our thinking (go figure),,,, My thinking that if a .40 button is delay,, then so is a .05 button,,,,,delay is delay ,,no matter what the time,,,,,,,I do understand that there has to be some because its mechanical BUT the adjustable button should be banned,,,,,,,,you buy a spec button and you have what you have...........if they dont ban them in stock,,,,,,,,,,,but this brings us to another issue,,,,,,,what about adjustable RPM`s??? I mean without an adjustable button,,,,you can just raise or lower RPM`s and still have a large amount of adjustable RT control


on the line lock deal,,,you not limited on what buttons can go where in stock,,,,,,all you do is put 2 longtrhow buttons side by side,,,,and release both at the same time,,,,rules dont say anythng about long throw buttons hooked to the line lock,,,,to release both at the same time,,,a thin bar connecting them together across the top works fine,,,,,rules say they cant be wired together,,,well there not,,,,but they still work together,,,,,,,,,,they only way to get an end to all this is to ban the 2 steps/buttons.......or Im with Chip,,,either ban them OR let delay boxes be legal,,,,,,,,go one way or the other
