How MockShift™ Works

A Real Manual Feel, Without Touching Your Transmission

MockShift adds a gated shifter to your car and gives you full control over every gear change. Your factory dual-clutch or automatic transmission stays exactly as it left the factory. Nothing is cut, reflashed, or replaced. When you want your daily driver back, you switch to automatic mode and drive like normal.

Four Drive Modes = Four Personalities

Gated Stick Shift
Sequential Stick Shift

The Short Version

You Choose When. The Car Does the Shift.

You move the shifter through a real gate. MockShift reads that movement and tells your car to change gears.

You choose when it happens. That is the whole idea. You get the timing, the throw, and the feel of a manual on top of a modern drivetrain that stays reliable.

Two Ways To Shift

Gated Manual: The classic H pattern. Every gear has its own position, so you pick the gear you want and put the lever there. Drop from fourth to second in one move. Your hand always knows where you are.

Sequential Shift: One straight gate. Push forward to shift down, pull back to shift up. One gear at a time, quick and repeatable, easy to work mid corner or on track.

Both run on the same hardware. You pick the mode.

Shift Feel

No-lift shifting when you want to stay hard on the throttle, and a light throttle lift for smooth shifts when you are cruising. Same in either mode.

About The Clutch

Believe me, running it without a clutch pedal is the way to go. You still get the gate, the throw, and the moment you decide the shift. The car will not stall, and your left leg stays out of it in traffic. You keep the part people love and skip the part some never enjoyed.

Prefer three pedals? A clutch option will be available soon. The current MockShift is built to add it.

Same feel. Your rules.

Step by Step

Three Steps, Every Shift

Precision-machined MockShift gated shifter

You Move the Shifter

A precision gated shifter drops into your cabin. Each gear sits in its own slot. You already know what that feels like, and that is exactly what you get. Lift the throttle for a smooth shift, or no-lift shift to stay in it for a fast one.

Controller Reads the Gate

A small controller senses which gate you selected. It also listens to your car so it always knows the true gear and driving mode. It only listens. No modifications to your existing drivetrain.

Your Car Makes the Shift

The controller sends the shift request to your transmission. It shifts the way it was engineered to, on your command. It feels like rowing your own gears, because you are.

Your Right Foot Still Matters

You Set the Character of Every Shift

How a shift feels comes down to what your right foot is doing, same as any manual you have driven yourself.

There are several ways to change the experience.

Stay in the throttle and grab the next gear for a hard, no-lift pull. Lift and shift for a smoother, street-friendly change.

On downshifts, blip the throttle on the way down for that rev-matched, old-school feel.

STAY IN IT

No-Lift Pull

Keep the throttle pinned and grab the next gear for a hard, aggressive upshift that keeps the car loaded and pulling.

Lift and Shift

Smooth and Street

Lift the throttle and make the shift, and roll back in. Relaxed and easy for the commute or cruising through town.

BLIP IT

Rev It

Blip the throttle on the way up or down for that old-school, rev-matched feel as you set up for the next corner. Rev in neutral.

Shift response follows your car's factory behavior and selected drive mode. MockShift puts that control on a real gate. It does not reprogram how your transmission shifts.

What Stays Untouched

Your factory transmission, its software, and its hardware stay stock. MockShift works alongside them, not in place of them. There is no tune, no flash, and no permanent change to your drivetrain.

Because nothing factory is modified, the system comes out as cleanly as it went in. Remove it and your car is back to stock.

One Car, Two Personalities

Daily Driver During the Week. Manual on the Weekend.

Switch to automatic mode and your car drives exactly as it does today, smooth in traffic and easy on the commute. Switch to manual mode and the gate takes over. One car, two personalities, on your terms.

Be one of the first to bring a real gated manual back to a modern dual-clutch Corvette C8. The Founder's Batch is a limited numbered first run. Every slot comes with a laser etched, numbered gate plate and founder pricing you won't see after launch.

Imagine you get the worlds #1 gated Corvette. Our test car is #0

What a brag at the next car meet when you blow people's minds with a manual C8.
