Just mount it on some velcro so you can move it around the drivers area just in case a tech guy gives you trouble.

Was going to mount it on the Turbo Action shifter frame behind the selector....handy to my right hand.

Seems to be one of those areas cloaked in shades of gray and ultimately subject to the approval of the tech team. IHRA mentions nothing of driver accessability and includes the term "3-step" in the Stock rules. I think I'll use the velcro as per Mike's suggestion.

A few years back, my Dad has one of those MSD selectors connected to his air shifter, which was right next to him in the car. It was in there for a long time, but at one of the races, tech made him move it or remove it since it was within reach. He switched over to using chips after that.

Makes no sense at all.

Just unplug it to go through tech. LOL!

Just kidding Travis. :-)

I can't reach mine while strapped in anyway.
