Here's my two cents. Leave it the way it is!!!! I run a M/Stick mustang and feel I am just as competetive as a guy running a button. You STILL have to stage the car, see the TREE THE SAME and drive the finishline! I have not changed the rpm on my two step since I built the car. I adjust tire press & the amount of travel in my pedal to hit the tree. Nothng beats seat time! If you want to race with the guys who win all the time hit your practice tree and go to a local bracket race and learn how to be consistent.
A button or two step is NOT the problem in stock. Friends of mine that bracket race don't want to bother with stock because of all the politics and whining that goes on. Less kids are moving into drag racing in general let alone stock!!! That to me is more of a concern.

[ps] Even if they do away with two steps i'll still be coming out on the high chip! I launch higher than I shift and go through the traps at!!! Does that mean next we won't be able to run msd boxes because a stick guy can use his high chip built into the box!!!!!
Leave it alone and race!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
