Imagine this. Clutchless shifting, non-electronic, non PITA dog box, still a true manual, and you can shift it from 1-4, 2-1, 3-6 or however you want, not sequential (1-2-3-4-5-6). Doesn't have the wear and crap that dog boxes give you. And the best part...absolutely zero shifting time. Oh yeah, and it probably won't be a bajillion dollars and as it is working right now it's on a tremec t5.
I don't totally get how it works, I understand bits.
Either way, it does work.
