After reading, re-reading the new rule and viewing the picture on the NHRA web site:

1. The 3 inches of travel is from the micro-switch activation point or point of contact to the top of the button.

2. The 5-0 button will have to be considerably shorter than 1st thought because the activation point where the micro switch attaches is at the bottom of the housing using up travel that is not really travel but is considered travel the way the rule is written.

3. The accepted list of switches refers to the (micro-switch) itself. For example the button in the picture has a metal frame that the (micro-switch) attaches to. You will have to have an approved (micro-switch)not the whole button assembly itself.
