Theres been some debate whether this is real

I seriously doubt it!

There is a thread on here about it, but we never got any evidence that its real.

it does seem dodgy just the face he has advertised it saying there are two options as if he is marjeting it and then doesnt answer any questions. but on another note have you ever heard of a duck clutch could possibly be a good installation?

Id love one but its too much money to get a sequential box, If someone made one that was tried and tested id have one if it was under the 5K mark. But they wont.

You only have to look at sequential boxes for fords to see the cost of one.

If this was actually real and decent then i wouldve thought the guy would be making them by the bucket load.

good point mw3.

what do you think to the duck clutch idea?

With a dog box you can already shift up through the gears anyway without the clutch. And also buy equipment to blip the throttle on the downshifts for sequential change (trickshifter)

So this duck clutch is not really much of a benifit on a dog box.

It sounds very American, ive not heard of this system before

Surely that duck thing is for people with one leg.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Thats what i was thinking!!

It is advertised as a disabled adaptaion for a manual gear change but i was thinking it would enable the use of left foot breaking and bliping the throttle easier when changing gear. It will allow you to use both feet with ease?

thats taking the skill out of driving though.

Is it tho? Surely it is just a hand operated clutch such as those used in f1? Apart from the clutch is on the gear leaver rather that the steering wheel?

Youll be wanting to control the throttle with a twisty handle bar thing next.
