Yep - on my Twincam race car I use it in 4th only, and aways make sure to 
lift off to allow it to fully engage before applying power again. Sure, I 
lose a fraction of a second, but the guys that just keep their foot to the 
floor when they shift into OD are usually out looking for parts pretty quick.
