As the title implies.I'm looking to ad a shifter for my car this year and would like to here your imput about the ratchet vs gated shifters.This would be for race use only no consoles involved.The app is a 700r4.I know not the best tranny but its what I have.
Ratchet with a lock out.
700R4 isn't a bad tranny. Hell even a 200R4 can be a 1000hp handling unit.
Ratchets are awesome for any use. There's no reason to not use a ratchet if you can get one for your trans.
drag race or road/autocross? I'd suggest trying to find someone with each type of shifter to try out in person. It is really personal preference. I am assuming by gated you mean something like the Hurst Quarter stick or B&M Pro Stick. I prefer the Hurst quarterstick style myself, as the ratcheting can get a bit old sometimes, especially with a reverse valve body.
For road race or autocross the ratcheting may be easier to operate.
