                        ……… tach and shift light were up today and I never used a shift light before ❗ but I guess it will be better to just wait 🙄 till I see the light and shift instead of trying to read the tach during take off ❗ 😆 this is a stick shift car and is close to the first car I ever drag raced , at Dover 😀 ………….. so hope the light helps ❗
