I've heard the idea thrown around, but haven't seen it done. I think by doing so you would loose the control that makes the T-race so great. I know tons of folks who just tour in the T-race now with a free pivot binding. Takes a small bit of getting accustomed to, but after a few tours you'll hardly notice it. Strolling through the flats is the only time it's a bugger (if you have the cant very far forward it doesn't allow you to straighten your legs, your quads stay flexed and it's a good workout).

Not quite sure what you mean. The T-Race is a completely different boot, much stiffer, with a stiffer bellows and more forward lean. Do you mean just permanently locking the walk mode in a T-1?
