Chris,
Given that Tom (SVXFiles) has already proven that you can light up all four tires with the 4:44 gears, do you think you'll actually need the lineloc for front and rear? Is the point here just that you won't have to have your left foot on the brake pedal when you bring the engine up to the 3k rpm stall speed?

The line lock will be to accomplish some wild and crazy 60' launch times and make the car a button push launch (actually button release). When set, I will floor the throttle on the beast when the lights start to come down and release a button for the line locks to launch the car. I am not looking for wheel spin for this adds chance to break things and inconsistant times. I will be using a sticker compound tire with a much lower tread life wear rating to "hook up" on the start line.

Congrats, Chris. They're like Lays potato chips, no?

Wow congrats! I feel out of the loop now that I'm spending my free time studying instead of web surfing, took me a few days to see this thread. Cool to hear you're finally a multisvxer.
