Anybody have Pettit's Short Shifter?

What brand is it? B&M? C's? Mazdaspeed? Pettit say's they make it, but I don't see it.......

How well does it work?

I have it. They do make it themselves. Well actually someone else makes it for them, but they designed it. It works really good. It's hard to describe, but it's like the stock shifter, only with shorter throws. I recommend it.

Actually... They sell both their own design and the C's. I've had both, and althought I'm great friends w/ Jeff and Cameron, I like the C's much better... that's just my opinion...

I've got a Mazdaspeed short shifter and can't stand it.

I'm tearing it out and putting the stock one back in.

Just my preference I guess. And whenever I plan visit the track it goes back in.

It's just too stiff moving from gear to gear.
