10 Second auto C5's
A question for those who are running an auto C5 between 10.00 - 10.99 sec.
What transmission shield are you using ?
Thanks

I do not have a shield on my trans and I know of about 5 others that are not using one either.

The NHRA regs. for a 10 sec auto are pretty straight forth. I suspect that just a transmission shield is required, under 10 sec could get a little complex.

Transmission shields would be great.
If they were made available as a true bolt-on, that would be a big plus.
