    Thank you very much. I use to have 95 single 6 speed. I hated automatic supras. After your vids, I have a new respect for the factory auto.I always wanted to know how you roll raced with that auto. Now I know its takes a lot more then just flooring it and praying for the race gods to help you win.

      Hey my dude, for drag racing applications auto is best. When you make big hp, especially 1000+ having a manual is awful to drive. There are so many automatic options nowadays but you want to bang through gears, always putting power down.

If i lived out in the country with no traffic then stick shift no problem. But my Supra will not be that 1k whp supra, maybe do a single turbo conversion and 400 whp in an auto.

My car has a secret sport mode button on my base model K24 AWD CRV. And everything I read said that it didn't come with a sport mode. Sport mode and S gear with is traction control off is fun.

    This is an older video but thanks for this!!! I sold my ‘97 single turbo about 6 years ago after blowing through 3 Titan transmissions then swapped to 6 speed and frankly was never happy with it as a 6 speed. Big turbo cars for drag racing need to be auto so she never lets off boost in my opinion. This gives me a reason to start looking to buy another MKIV auto! Question if you see this...what standalone are you running?

That turned me towards ATF SPEED and i never looked back. I use an AEM V2 to control my engine and trans. Over the years these transmissions have come a crazy long way. My supra currently runs 7.70@183mph in the 1/4 mile

    Better general information on Automatics.
    When it comes to Automatic Transmissions , leaving it in "Drive" on the interstate is not bad. Especially with the proper gear ratio that lets you get to 70mph in decent RPMs. For decent mpgs.
    When you want to go to 100mph to 80mph. That is when Overdrive is to be used.

I felt with those looser by setting out to beat the v160 Supra 1/4 mile record and that I did. I went 7.52@186mph with my Toyota transmission and now they can’t talk to me about no manual lol. I’ve also gapped all the manual Supra’s I have ever raced

    So I’m guessing it’s safe to shift in a automatic transmission right? Cause I have a Nissan Maxima 02 GLE and Someone told me dont manually shift in it Cause its not safe to shift in automatic transmission you can mess up the transmission.

    Hey mate. Any thoughts/tips/comments on the use of the torque converter lockup? The stock TCC in an A340E is basically made from cheese, but I've heard of guys building them up and when they drag race they have the TCC locked from the get go. Are you using it at all, or do you free rev the whole way and just jack the line pressures up? I've got a '98 Tiptronic I've hacked up with a full standalone transmission computer and I'm trying to figure out the best tune for the TCC and whether it's useful, or just leave it for the highway to save fuel. I can't afford to blow anything up, but you drag guys usually have the best info/experience and aren't afraid to blow things up for the rest of us to learn from. lol. Cheers.

      What’s up Race Fam. We never locked the converter during a race knowing it would it much extra stress on trans and damage it. We only lock it on the Highway or in the dyno after that we run it unlock. However the convert we use is pretty tight to help the power make it down to the tires. I ran 7.52@186mph with that trans and converter

      @funkynerd_com 2 роки тому +1

      @@BalticSupraRacing Thanks. I thought so! When you say you lock it on the dyno though, is that just for steady-state tuning. Power runs are still unlocked? Just trying to get a sense of how much the thing can actually take.

    I think some automatic cars are fun and some are terrible. Automatic transmissions have a lot more little parts than a manual, usually.
    i think my old lexus has the same trans but 5 gears?! wth… (nvm thats a a650)

    So when the race started did you slowly accelerate or did you floor it? Also after you shift into third gear did you shift it into drive or did you stay on third?

      What’s up Race Fam. Thanks for checking out our video. As crazy as it sounds the faster the car goes the more everything else starts to slow down. At 180+ mph you really must feel like your one with the car. Get to know your car little by little first.

      Fred Cockfield mine won’t take manual orders without the manual button. Try it out in your car if it stay in the selected gear and up shift only when you request then no need for the manual button in your case and no harm will be done
