I have a customers kit car spec F2 Astra rally car in the workshop at the moment 8) , it has a Quaife 6 speed sequential dog g/box in it. I've driven it down the road and the box is stunning.

However, I would not have one in My rally car as if I am going down a long straight on an event I like to go from 5th down in to 2nd or 3rd depending on bend etc.. at the end of the straight. With the sequential You have to go down through every gear therefore loosing time I reckon!!

he is saying if you miss a gear or have a little 'mis-hap' and reverse out of trouble, quite often you need to switch of the engine, select neutral, and restart the engine. Which wastes time.

renault sport actually used to use a standard h type gearbox on clio rally cars with some fancy hydraulics so that it could act like a sequential shift.
probably cost a bit though. seriously, I think a gear linkage could be designed that mimics a seq. shift, maybe using a solenoid clutch (used on disabled conversions). the only problem is a straight cut box is noisy as hell for normal use. ever noticed that wrc drivers put earphones on for the road sections.
