Race Truck!

Yeah man, just a momentary switch you can pickup at napa. Just run it to a ground and your good to go.

How does the 2step work if say you want to set it at 3600 rpm's and your stall will only foot brake to 3000 rpms? Or will it only set at rpm's below your stall speed?

When I had one on my truck, I just taped into the brake light switch so when even I stepped on the brakes, it was active.

I like Kyle's idea. How well did that work when brake boosting?

No pic. They are setup to be turned on with either a hot wire or a ground, so I found a wire that was hot when you stepped on the brake and taped into that. You could always put an interrupt switch inline if you wanted to do brake stands, but my truck will just do rollin burnouts!
