Auto Transmission ?
 

ok is it good or bad to leave ur stang on "N" n then give it sum gas to at least 3000rpms, n then bring it down to "D". i think its called stalling. so is this good or bad for my transmission? i heard from 2 friends that its not bad for ur car but then again i heard from my other 2 friends that it is bad. dont know wat to believe, ive done it a couple of times but i was like a 1500rpm, really not that much.

It's bad for your trans, just foot brake it.

ok i know this is dumn but wat is "foot brake"

You know how to do a brake stand burnout? Basically that but don't hold the gas down enough to actually make the tire spin, let go of the brake and floor it when you launch.

You hold down on the brake and press the gas to raise the rpms up to usually around 1500, before traction breaks, and you can launch it like that. Thats assuming your doing the neutral drop to get a good launch durring drag racing. I never did it in my auto but I figured it would just induce alot of spinning bcuase I would have traction problems when I foot breaked it.

ahhh ok gotcha man

here's a vid of the last time i went to the drag strip

i ran 17.3 there, the mod list are on the side n also the time slip too, it was then i didnt have the tuner or the ported & polished upper intake manifold so now im hoping to get a better time now :D

oh i thought u ment when ur driving and u pop it into N and coast and rev the engine a bit. is that bad for the tranny?

^^^^^ohh no i mean from a dig, lol

lol, You don't stage at the tree. You cant see the tree from up there. That was priceless.

hey hey that was my first time every running the strip, ya after i watched it i was lmao, lol, im still a beginner man

yeah I wouldn't do the rev to 3000 in N and then drop into D, bad stuff will happen after a few too many of those. You can try the foot brake thing and see if it works for you.

you may have staged too far forward but who ever was driving that GT should have the car taken away a 16.9 is absolutely horrible, there are no words for how bad of a time that is in that car.

alright cool, ya i was trying to get a car length man, lol, n as for the GT i saw him race again n i saw that he got like a 13 sumthing

that was sad that should have been like 13-14 seconds.

ya i think he got like a 13.3

here are both my time slips from the drag strip

It is a proven way to break transimissions fast.

No shit! You were at midnight madness here in San Antonio. Im pretty sure thats the ancira sign right? Im from SA also. Ever seen a trop grn stang w/chromies. Maybe Ill see you out there one night. Your car is pretty easy to spot. Midnight madness is the shit huh, pretty nice cars out often. :smokin:

Am i seeing the timeslip right... the 06 GT got in the 16's, damn i hope it was manual and he missed a gear.

friend of mine destroyed his tranny doin that to a front wheel civic the tranny just crapped out. If your gunna do something like that do brakestands at stop lights.

one foot on break
one foot hovering on gas
light turns green punch gas and let up the brake

from a dig that is the best way for me. Just play wit it a little bit.

alright cool, ya i gonna go to the one on july 11th, so hopefully ill see u there
