Clutchless trans

For the record I would rather not have any more gadgets. However, the toothpaste is already out of the tube because the automatics already have them and I would like to think it is a reasonable request to have a more equitable way of competing for a good light. On that note, is there anyone, I mean anyone who would argue that having an adjustable button release is not an advantage? It seems like more of a Nintendo game instead of driving to me, but hey they are allowed to do it, so why would they show up to a gun fight with a knife? NHRA allows me a ported head and no matter how much of a purist I may or may not be, I have to be able to compete so I have ported heads. Sorry, that's the way it goes sometimes.

In fact, I totally understand the notion of a button release for the clutch being adverse to someone's way of thinking, but how would those people feel about making the automatic racers put their release button on the brake pedal linkage? Can you imagine the phone calls to Glendora over that one.
