15 Jan 2010 Pro-Shift sponsor Rally Driver Louise Cook
Whilst at the recent Autosport Show we were visited on our Stand by British female Rally Driver Louise Cook and her team. Louise is 22 and has big plans to take on the boys at their own game by competing in the British Rally Championship Challenge this year. She ultimately has her sights firmly set on becoming the first female World Rally Champion and we think she has every chance of achieving this with her unshakeable determination to succeed!
Pro-Shift Technologies Limited are proud to be associated with Louise and actively support her through her Sponsorship Scheme. Please have a look at her website for more information:-

- Stand alone closed loop technology, featuring linear feedback recognition
- A unique world's first making closed loop now possible on cars and bikes without rotary potentiometer feedback

- 1-12 Cylinder RPM recognition and measurement parameters
- Compatible with our Auto-Blip Downshifters offering graduated "on times", either vacuum or electrically operated units available (programmable for all gears)
- Gear specific safe max RPM Downshift "lock out" which prevents downshift engine overrev (programmable for all gears)

Equally suitable for racecars and superbikes, this truly unique patented gearshifting system will not only provide F1 style gearshifting technology for top of the range racecars fitted with rotary gearbox potentiometers it will also provide a fully integrated stand alone closed loop system for vehicles without rotary pots thus extending the technology available to these vehicles at a very affordable price. The PS3 also provides a world's first for superbike engines as the system can also provide stand alone truly closed loop technology which was previously unavailable on superbike engines until now, however using the Pro-Shift's unique linear feedback recognition system we can now provide all of the benefits that you get with a racecar's feedback on all superbike engines.
