What happens is that the dog faces on the claw collar and gear are hitting each other. Just slightly let out the clutch enough to spin the shafts and it will shift right in. Will be the same with the paddles. The new 991 trans will be an "inverted" RSR style from Ricardo.
Adding a paddle shift to the current cup is definitely possible. The strain gauge input could be replaced with the up shift paddle shift button possibly. The down shift blip could be mechanical just like current set-up's. It might not be that hard at all. Shiftech is the paddle shift kit being used on the 991. Shouldn't make the lap time any faster really but would be a little easier to drive.
We are currently working on a solution to the un-programmable ECU as well.

yes , I drove the Gt3 R and the system put the upper gear ONLY if you push the trottle more than 30 % , when you warm the tyres or you are in the paddock you must use the clutch pedal ...I think it's the same

dude, there has to be some sort of driver skill involved.
no true racing series allows abs, even f1, dtm, & alms banned traction control a few years back.
world challenge is the only series that i know that allows abs, and i think it should not be allowed.
George you ran your 2010 without abs and did just fine.

KMP was part of the initial testing of this car and had an opportunity to get the whole contract, but according to Pascal, Porsche wanted him to come down too far on the price. But there are a number of Porsche, BMW and many other marques in Europe using Pascal's system. It is a very highly respected product and it is most likely the system we will offer down the road on our new sequential gearbox.
Call me what you will...

A bit eerie: I just went to my PM page from here to check something, and the banner add at the top was for.... KMP
So of course, I had to page back and post this.

Shahine,
Regarding ABS on the cars.......Rolex used to allow ABS back with the 996 Cup cars. WC did not allow ABS after the 997 Cup came out but then factory cars like the VIPER and Vette came out with ABS and SCCA Pro decided to allow it with the 2008 Cup cars and the entire GT class.
Plus I know you were looking for an ABS system for your Club car for a while....
I have driven both Cups with ABS and without, and if the series allows it great, if not.....then no one gets it.
