Default 2 Step Questions

I'm posting this in the C5 section since there aren't many people running 2 Steps in the C6's yet...

I have my 2 step all hooked up but the distance from when the Floor mounted Clutch position switch release and when the clutch actualy begins to engage is about 2 inches . It doesn't work well that way, trust me on this one...

I was going to put a block on the back of the pedal to take up the 2 inches of distance between the swtich release and clutch engagement, but it seems to me, that if like if I was shifting hard and really banging through the gears, it might break the switch from pounding on it so hard. When you normally shift, you never have to put it all the way to the floor so it isn't a problem.

Someone in the C6 section mentioned using the Cruise control clutch switch instead of the floor mounted one, can anyone tell me how this has worked for them? Does it bog? What kind of 60' times can be had while using this method?

Any ideas or pictures of your setup or personal experience?

Thanks Guys...

The 2 Step I'm referring to is from Lingenfelter. What it does is allow you to mat the gas and have it cut spark in a cyclic fashion to keep the rpm's at whatever you preset them to, this way you can better replicate the same launch from one run to the next and possibly cut 60' times by 2-3 tenghts by allowing the tires to hook before going full throttle.
