Hey guys, well thats my question, i just got the car, so im still trying to figure out little things about it. So just how exactly should i race the car, in drive, overdrive, or manually upshift????? let me know, its an automatic 94 Z28

 

Overdrive is fine but you prolly wont get to 4th either way. I dont see much of an advantage manually upshifting. Good Luck!

no need to MANUALLY shift an ELECTRONIC tranny

 

get it programmed for better shift points. overdrive is more powerful at the bottom definently i think. you could also look into getting a shift kit. manually shifting hurts your tranny i think.

other than that, when the light goes green, and the other guy is spinning his tires, that means its time to go, but of course you wont spin, because you'll be crossing the finish line

 

push the gas....

M6's Rule....

 

i was thinking that but didnt say it. i thought of some actual INSIGHTFUL info to give him

 

From what I understand manually shifting it burns the clutches due to low line pressure. Leave it in drive and go.

 

if i were you id put in an aggresive cam, stage 3 heads, stroke it to 383, rebuild the tranny, get a Moser 9", drag slicks, then i think youd be ok to race

 

well i actually wanna know this because im taking it to the track on wednesday, and i want to run a couple of times. So which is it, drive, or overdrive, oh and BTW my car is bone stock.

 

I offer enough insightful info, that I can be a smartass every so often. Tonights my night. Let me have my fun...

 

do one with overdrive and one with just drive, see which is faster. i reckon drive will be faster

 

Autos are faster

 

i have an auto but i totally disagree there. unless you have a badass auto you will get killed by a manual. they are like .6 faster in the 0-60 arent they?

 

why exactly would drive be faster?? sorry if these are stupid questions, but i just got the car a cupple weeks ago

 

The M6 is only faster bone stock cause they come with a bigger(numerically) rear gear but autos launch way better.

no they are not .6 faster 0-60.Do you have any idea how much of a difference .6 of a second in 0-60mph is?Thats just huge
