Last year ran at Milan with an "almost stock" V. Best time was 13.3 @ 106 with severe wheel hop.
I need a short throw shifter and I'm not sure I want to pay Mallet $440 for their unit.

Do you have more information on the Katech one? Also, I'm interested in their anti-wheelhop kit... are they available on their website?
