    I assumed it would be OK in the track mode. I normally drive in the Sport mode and love it. Another good one.

    I’ve had my WB Scat Pack Challenger for almost two years and track mode is the only setup that I drive in (unless it’s raining). Eco is just to boring and I love the hard shifts and hearing those bullets crackle and pop in track mode. I may drive it tomorrow in sport just to see what difference I experience but I can almost guarantee you I’ll be back to track in no time 💪🏽🔥

      I got my WB scat pack a few months ago and started off in street then sport then finally track mode.... once you're used to track mode going back to even sport mode feels so sluggish. I set up my custom mode with track trans, steering and suspension with traction control in sport, or street if it's raining, and love it!

      @@danielibarra3643 oh most definitely! Putting the transmission in track mode gives you the most performance out of the engine but at the cost of the worst gas mileage. Usually with a full tank I can get around 200 miles when in my custom mode, while if I put it in street or eco i'll get between 350 to 380 depending on how much hwy vs Street driving I'm doing. For me though, mileage isn't really a factor. I work from home and the only time I NEED to drive is errands. Other than that I'm pretty much just driving to enjoy the car so I leave it in track unless I'm on some kind of road trip.

    Racer X L had a brand new 2018 Charger 392 Daytona traded it in for a pitch black completely new loaded 2021 scatpack I totaled the car in an accident that was not my fault went back to same dealership and all the scatpacks had at least a 10,000 mark up and the cars were not loaded at all, they would not budge, I was outraged at them. Went to Ford dealership no mark up on price got a brand new 2021 5.0 loaded all the highest options after six months with the 5.0 and you are right driving the 392 in Track mode does not hurt the car but I really miss Mopar the Mustang has no torque its a nice car but in 1 year will trade it in for a another Mopar the cars are just more fUN to drive.

These cars are built to be driven the way they are supposed to be driven and as long as you put good gas and good fluids, you should be good to go.

For us RT and scatt owners with the auto transmission, running in sport mode also disables the annoying MDS and keeps the active exhaust valve open. Personally i am more likely to run in sport all the time so the car runs on all eight cylinders when tooling around town. It just feels right 😁

    I'll share some things I learned from David Starnes, one of the BEST trans builders for the ZF transmissions. I broke my trans when I was around 800rwhp because I was accidentally in Street Trans mode, instead of Track where the TCM tune was. Well I broke it pretty badly. After getting it built, he said running it in street, the pressure in the trans are at their lowest. But in track, it's at it's highest. You can "technically" break a stock trans running WOT constantly in street trans mode due to these pressures. He deals with it all the time and even made some silly mistakes testing built trans at WOT in street trans mode and eneded up braking some. Track trans is a MUST when using heavy acceleration in stock or high horsepower cars 👍

I did open it up today and took out a Honda with just street mode LOL! track is crazy on these cars. It feels like I'm about to shoot into outer space. But, one thing about track is that you do have to break really extra early this car is an animal what it could do.

    I honestly feel like it's better for the Challenger/Charger to drive in track or sport than normal mode. I notice all kinds of little quirks and noises when in normal mode and driving more conservative. When I'm in sport mode and driving in a more spirited way, the car seems to operate better. They were clearly designed to run hard.

    Sorry I missed you. I bought the Blue Scat Pack in the video. First Mopar car I've ever owned. Been a Mustang guy for 20 years, then had a 19 Camaro SS. Now the Challenger. Without a doubt its the most comfortable modern muscle car I have owned. Feels faster from a dig then the 5.0 and SS, but seems maybe a little slower on top. The funny part is I went there with every intention on buying a Vette and left with the Scat Pack. Great content!

    I have a 2022 R/T, and I definitely followed the break in recommendation to the letter. However I didn't use sport mode a whole lot, and I wish I had done so. Mine is just a simple R/T so I don't have track mode or dynamic suspension, but I seem to remember reading in the manual that the tranny will "learn" driving habits and adjust to facilitate that kind of driving. I feel like I haven't "taught" the car how to deal with me driving it in that mode. A mutual friend has a Nissan GT-R and he voided his warranty by using launch mode on the car before the break in was finished; so this being my first sports car, I was afraid to do the same thing

    I drive my 1320 in Drag mode almost all the time. The only time that I dont is when I am going on the highway for more than a few miles. Why? Because drag mode keeps the car from going into 8th gear and also from engaging MDS. So you will get better mpg on the highway in regular drive mode. However around town 100% drag mode. Snappier responce, better shifting and engine breaking is substantial saving wear and tear on the Brembos. Just do a fuse reset every couple of months to erase and learned drive habits to keep it snappy.

    the thing I would be concerned about is putting the line lock on for the front calipers in order to do burnouts, I mean maybe once in a while (not to mention that tires for these cars are expensive!) but that in of itself puts a lot of strain on the trans. it's not much different imo than doing brake stands with other cars that don't have line lock. I did that sort of thing years ago with cars, building up pressure taking off.. It started screwing up the shifting as time went on. rougher gear changes. good thing the reverse didn't go..as we all know thats the first sign in autos the trans is going

      No it will definitely not hurt the transmission, But beating the crap out of it will eventually,None of the drive modes hurt ur car,its the other things owners do that hurt the car

    I drive my ScatPack Challenger in Sport Mode 100% only since 2018 and the car runs just as smooth as the 1st day I got it 💪. I’m not sure if my ScatPack has track mode tho

      I can't see why any mode would harm the car.. considering dodge designed it for various modes

    @RacerX sorry I am not on Instagram or I would follow you for sure. I asked my dealer`s service manager this exact question when I bought my 2021 Scat Pack T/A. He concurred with you...plus mine is a manual, so the transmission wear is up to me and my skills. I just passed my break in period (800 kms) and can use all modes now.

    This is good to know because I just bought a used 2020 wb charger and I can’t get the transmission out of sport mode nor can I turn the traction control off. I had my trusted auto repair shop that I take it to reset the transmission and engine modules and do a flash and it still didn’t reset it so who knows what the hell is going on but thanks for the awesome content like always RacerX

  • @codyerickson3550
    @codyerickson3550 2 роки тому

    I always suspected Sport and Track were easier on the transmission just because sometimes with all the 8 gears for the automatics it feels like the computer can’t decide what gear the car should be in on Street mode. So I always drive my 2020 Scat Pack Challenger set up with Sport steering and traction and with Track transmission settings. I only use all on Street if it’s raining (or the roads are wet) or on long distance drives. And I’ll only put it in Eco if I’m in heavy stop-and-go traffic or in a drive thru.

    I always drive my 392 Challenger on Sport Mode, like the second I start my car up, I put it on a Sport Mode immediately, because it disengages MDS and I hate MDS.
