Agreed Paul. When I first got my current ZR, I experienced same thing. I made a jumper and bypassed the clutch switch. I continue to depress the pedal just as a precaution and ALWAYS make sure the shifter is in neutral.
But yeah there are times when it's convenient to be able to reach thru the window and just start the motor. One reason I made sure I had an eBrake w the C6Z rear calipers.

Which way you look depends on if the Transmission is in Reverse or Forward gears when you start the LT5 without clutch depressed
![]() Starting the engine in gear is always a chance and with you outside starting the LT5 through the window......well..... ![]() Quote:
