at the drag strip
 

When you race your 7A do you leave it in drive or use the manual mode?

That's a hard one :confused: How about one run shifting & one run leaving it in drive.

Here's another hard one. Will you choose the quickest run's way, or the slowest? :icon17: Just joking. Consider also which way you feel more comfortable.

My best time was a 13.2 stock. Doing this:

1) Traction Off
2) Manual Mode
3) Get the tires hot
4) Pull up to the tree, brake mashed as hard as you can
5) I try and REV up to 2-3k and then pedal to the metal.

I tried this in "D" and my time was slower by about :2 seconds. I ran a 13.4/13.5 consistently in D

Heres a 13.31 just for fun. Watch in 1080HD

Great times! I can't believe your car is only 256whp. mph?
I think running in bracket classes you might be better off to leave it in drive. Also your run sounded like you have shifting/driving experience. A newbie??? I don't know???

I also think my numbers are higher then that... It was 100 degrees the day I dyno'd. The cars oil temps were 220+. But 7AT does lose more power compared to the 6 speed. I will re-dyno in december if I dont add modifications by then.

That day was the first day I had ever been to the track - You dont need much driving experience to shift a paddle lol :)

Ran about 7 runs total for $5. It was a car meet we had at a drag strip

You dont have to stand on the brakes for your first trip. Turns green stomp that throttle andbe ready to shift to 2nd quick cause it gets on you fast. It caught me by surprise first time at track. Traction shouldnt be a prob.
