I'm car 455

Today's Race trip, I wanted to test different 1^st gear shift RPMs.

Major modifications before this raceday; None. I changed oil and put on my old Idle bypass valve (to help idle with the new intake)

Run 1

12^ timing, Ice, big burnout, brake/floor on 3^rd yellow. Launched at 1000RPMs. AOD D shift points; 1^st 4700, 2^nd 4500. 80degrees

204: 85 Mustang GT

Run 2

Ice, Big burn, 0 wheel spin, 1^st 5300, 2^nd 4500. 75 degrees

204: 85 Mustang GT

I really wanted to shift 1^st/2^nd at 5000, a 300 increment from 4700, but the stock AOD does not shift when told to.

Run 3

Ice, big burn, 0 spin, 1^st 5600, 2^nd 4900 70 degrees

219: 93 Mustang Cobra

Run 4

Ice, small burn, 0 spin, passenger rode with me and videod. 65 degrees

216: ?68 ?Z28

On this run, I pulled the shift knob right off my auto shifter.
