I personally think that maybe half of this board would be concidered potential customers. I mean half of the people that actually race, drive, etc. Its just a matter of preference, sure it MAY take a bit of skills (IMO it takes only marginal skill away, mostly just risk, i.e. risk of not synchronising the gas with clutch) but it does make your vehicle faster and more efficient. Would I save up to get this product myself? maybe. Would I buy it if I had a bit left over money? As long as customers thoroughly enjoy it, know it works, and its reliable, all without being paid off (not trying to say you will, I dont mean to pin you for anything) then yes, I would get an upgrade like this. Things change, and as much as I hate it, sometimes its not so bad to give it a try.
I agree that CVTs would definetly be freaking weird as far as sound goes and altogether running of the vehicle, but I still think once we get more knowledge about them, they'll be the future of interal combustion engines.
