I do think the 400 with the GV unit would be a better choice though. You'll have enough on your mind while piloting to worry about. No since in making gear selection anything more complicated than just tapping up or down on a lever or paddle.
The car will be drag raced as well, mostly to tune it up for a 1 mile event. The problem is usually the same, and I have talked to liberty, jerico, lenco etc. They don't make the strong transmissions or gear sets with over drive. Thats the only way the car can reach its top end. There was one or 2 companies that did but it was barely an overdrive, something in the .9ish range. Thanks for the input though, I will check them all out again before I buy.
