Default C5 shifter

just wanted to let you guys know about RSD (Race Specialty Design) I just un installed my MGW shifter and put in one of theres and it was like night and day this shifter was just what I was looking for it was a lot less notchy than the MGW and the throws were shorter Steve and the guys at RSD were fantastic as far as customer service they had my shifter to me with in three days and answered any questions that I had so I would give them a shot if you are not happy with your after market shifter , I talked with Steve for a while on the phone and he said they are also working on a bolt in roll cage so I will be ordering that in the spring , the just got NHRA aproval on it and I think he said they will start production soon .

I think new they are like $239. I bought a used one and I like it a lot, especially on the road courses. It really is a short shift. I just can't see how these things are priced so high. It is just a C6 shifter that has been cut down and threaded for C5 ****. That being said, it is my favorite so far.

Xstork - will you be selling your MGW? I would be interested just to see what all the fuss is about.
