Growing up around drag racing. All I ever wanted was to watch the shift light and pull all the cool levers and hoping to have the talent as to pull them also at the correct times. My fathers Funny car had manual shift levers on a 3 speed B&J . A manual lean out lever and a pneumatic retarder. He did it all in under 6 seconds. Now all you do is let go of a button😔
