I bracket race a 15 second duster with a 318.I run 1/4 mile ant time I can..Does any body just leave the transmission is second and shift right after the finish line?Car is faster just gotta get the RPM'S up.Okay have at it....
I cross the line in 2nd gear (well, sometimes....) with my 2.76 geared 318 Duster and 2.45 geared 360 Duster. Most of the time I shift about 100 ft before the finish....
