ACTUALLY NOW ALOT OF F1 CARS ARE GOING TO PUSH BUTTON SHIFTERS BUT PADDLES ARE PREDOMINANT THROUGH-OUT, CART USES SEQUENTIAL SHIFT STICKS, FORMULA FORDS USE BOTH STYLES (STICK AND PADDLE), MAZDA KARTS USE SHIFT STICKS.

well, techinically with a few popper solenoids and an Ikeya Formula sequential shifter setup you'd be half way there:D

now maybe i can find a good enough solenoid for the clutching mechanism:ylsuper

My Indy car has a conventional 5 speed shifter in it. Well I have Indianapolis plates on my car, does that count?

Stone_age, you are correct.
