I saw this one guy has made up a way to cable shift a tail shifter. Has any one made one for the side shifter? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) I want to slide the driving position over to the center of the car for better weight positioning. This is a track car only (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif) I only need the hump for the shifter stuff but if I swap to a cable shift I could remove the hump and slide the seat over. I would go Hyd clutch and redo gas cable.

I would love a center-seater. Not just for the weight distribution, but I think the driving experience would be better - easier to feel what's happening with weight transfer, etc.
Regarding the shifter... Why not move the shifter over to the left of center? I would think you could just move the shifter over to the left of the driver and the shift rod would ~almost~ have a straight shot back to the side of the tranny. If you're concerned about having to shift with your left hand it's only because you aren't left-handed like me.

You'll just have to figure out how to make them strong and also light. -Ben M. |
