Mark, the only thing that will make much difference in the way you can drive on the street verses at the track will depend on the clutch. As long as your clutch disk isn't a metal puck type with a solid center, it should work fine on the street and the track. And yes, having no converter means you will have to use the clutch when you stop.

Actually a Lenco works the same way your clutch auto will. Only difference is a Lenco uses mechanically operated wedges to lock up the trans and an automatic uses hydraulic pressure.

Little known fact; the first Lenco's had Buick Dynaflow disks in them.
