That actually helps a lot Ray thanks! So if im understanding correctly, the two step basically just allows you to launch at WOT without revving the engines brains out at the line. Similar to a stall converter? And the lock up allows you to actually spin the clutch a little so the wheel hooks up before it gets all the beans?

Yeah, a 2-step is just a rev-limiter with 2 limits, one limits set for staging, and the other set at top engine RPM. At times another step is added for the burnout.

So if I have this correct, if you have a "slipper" type clutch that doesn't engage till 4500 RPM, you set your "Launch Step" just below, 4000 RPM. So while your staged you can hold the the bike at WOT and the 1st step limiter will hold it at your set RPM. After the launch, then the 2nd step of the 2-step kicks in as an over-rev limiter.

Correct me if Im out of line.

Edit. A Stall converter isn't like a 2-step, a stall converter is like a clutch in a way that the Stall will not engage the tranny untill the motor is "on the cam" or in its powerband. Well for racing... Think of a stall as your left hand, if you put your bike into gear while the clutch in engaged, your bike will die, so you rev the motor a bit till you find the RPM the motor has to be at so that it won't die when you let the clutch out, thats your "stall" RPM. Well in the easiest way I can explain.

Get in your car, stand on the brakes and mash the gas, the motor will stall or give up revving and thats the RPM of the stall converter of your car. Just don't do it for long it will take no time to burn up the fluid.
