Can you elaborate? Was this only for the test boxes?

Just finished the Homestead Major with the Autoblip. It takes some getting used to but I think it's an improvement. As far as I know, it's available to anyone that wants it.

I used the Auto-Blipp for one session before disabling it. I think I'll be running without it.

Feel like it needs to be has it disabled or runs it. This is supposed to be a spec series. Everyone should have to drive the car the same way. At least that's my thoughts

There were six cars under our tent with it and everyone liked it.

The blipper is mechanical. The amount of "blip" is adjustable from nothing to a lot. My preference is to set it to nothing and manually blip. I am a left-foot braker, so I have a foot free to blip as I downshift.

I added some pictures of the auto-blip mechanism to the google drive folder I posted earlier. Also added some some pics of the wiring changes.

Adjustment is done by moving the cable housing using barrel adjusters, just like a bike. Well, like an old bike, before they all went to disk brakes.
