Recommended Posts

whats up with all the guys in the race storys sayin they shift there auto manually from 1 to 2 to D to overdrive. My car shiftes at the yellow lin wether I just floor it from a stop in overdrive or if I try and shift it manualy. It shifts on its own anyway. I ca't hold it in gear to redline if I want to. Does it actually make you run faster. whats up with this. :?:

I don't know about anyone else but I keep my car in 2nd if I'm up at the track... Beacuse with the chip I have the rev limmiter doesn't kick in til 7500 RPM's. Witch means I can run the whole 1/4 mile in just 1st and second.

My dad's Cutlass Ciera automatically does the 1-2 shift even when i put the shifter in 1st.

I can hold my 3.1L in first til whenever I feel like shifting, however, with a 3.1L its useless to hold it in til 6K
