Someone correct me if I'm wrong.. but I thought NOW all PS cars have to let the clutch out with your foot.. (& NO air shifters.. they have to shift it manually.. however with the "Liberty" trans there is no need to use the clutch to shift through the gears, BUT you do have to use the clutch peddle to launch in 1st gear off the line...

You are correct...

As Jim stated in his earlier post, driving these cars is no walk in the park. They have approximately twice the horsepower of the original Pro Stockers...which can't be easy to handle.
