Saftey feature suggestion T-Brake Lockout

Post by LSXCutty »

How about some sort of lock out for trans-brake operation above a set mph? Or timed. Mph would be good for a street car application.

Maybe a test light could be used, but maybe with the launch disabled above X mph, it disbables the trans brake. If not, sure would be neat to see it tied together or it's own settings

Is that not In Launch Control/ 2-step.... --> "Disable launch when VSS1 is above (MPH): " ?

Does this still activate the brake, but not 2-step?

That is unknown at this time. I'm close to getting my car on the ground and before hooking the brake up I'll test with a light to be sure. I'm hoping there tied together
