Hey im just wondering if anyone has some tips for shifting to get my times lower... like drag racing techniques..just wonderin if theres nething out there

 

It's good to have a dyno graph to show you where your making your power ... generally people have a tendency to take the car way past where it makes its best power to where it can be detrimental.

Just keep your foot on the gas and shift it like you hate it

 

I thought you had an auto trans.

I put mine in D.

 

Ditto was theshow said. Don't overshift. However, you have to take into consideration of where your peak power is and in relation to your transmission gearing. I'm sure there is a shift calculator online which would be in the ballpark. But nothing beats track testing. Good luck. -Mark

 

thnx guys! hey mark what color is your cobra?

 

98'red cobra(N/A)

12.47@108.9 (1.63 60ft)

I'm guessing red

And Mark, are you going to trackday? I think we'd be a really good race, but you can forget about me being N/A

 

Ya I'll be there. How about u having bottle pressure at oh say 300? I'll line up with ya. -Mark

 

That's a big negative on the 300 The last trackday I had the same 1.63 60', and ran a 12.56 at only 104 because my knock sensor was picking up pinging and pulling out all the timing towards the top of 3rd. So, unless you've done alot since your 12.47, I think it'd be a damn good race

 

Unless you get an auto.
