Transbrake Lockout Circuits by MGI SpeedWare
Your race car deserves a reliable and high-quality transbrake lockout circuit

MGI’s relay transbrake lockout circuits are designed to lock out the transbrake once the transbrake button has been pressed and released.

  • Prevent inadvertent use of the transbrake once a car has been launched on a race track.
  • Also useful when using an air shifter switch mounted on the steering wheel.
  • Proudly designed and assembled in North America.
  • Caution! – leave the arming switch in its OFF position when the transbrake is not intended for use.

While competitor transbrake lockouts are mostly timer circuits (where the driver has to be very aware of the timer settings), MGI’s transbrake system is a no-brainer preventative lockout. If the driver makes a mistake on the tree – for example, accidentally releasing the transbrake button too early (say he/she forgot to step on the gas), then the driver simply has to manually flip OFF and ON the arming switch to reset the circuit.

With it’s ease of use and driver-safety design, MGI’s relay controller is the BEST TB-lockout on the market.

3 vs 4 relay controllers

How To Use
Simply arm, engage, and release your transbrake – but only once!

STEP 1 – Arm Your Transbrake

To arm the transbrake, turn on the transbrake arming switch. At this point, the transbrake push button is live.

STEP 2 – Hold and Launch

With the transmission in 1st gear, press and hold the transbrake pushbutton to engage the transbrake. Release the pushbutton to launch.

STEP 3 – Reset the Circuit

Once the pushbutton has been pressed and released one time, the pushbutton will no longer function until the transbrake arming switch has been turned off then back on (causing the circuit to reset).
