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
