After reading the article it is not like the system I thought of earlier.

I wonder what the shift time of the Holinger gearboxes used in V8 Supercars would be, on upshifts they don't use the clutch or lift their right foot from the firewall, they just bang it through - I wouldn't be surprised if what happens inside the gearbox is essentially the same as the Zeroshift mechanism really.
The Holinger H6 gearboxes are quite slow in comparison to the quickshifts, with shift times limited to the speed of the driver (around .6 ~ .7 of a second for a good in plane shift) and how hard he's pushing it. They use a spark cut mechanism as well, that allows for the flat shift to be done, with out over reving the engine.
