Drag racing question
Drag racing question
So after going to the track a couple of times and talking to a few guys with alot more experience one guy told me to leave the gas pedal down when shifting. I have always let up like normal driving. Does everyone else that races do this and if you do what rpms do u shift at?
If you are a quick shifter then you will be ok, it's kinda hard on things. You should still shift at the same point. You do this for the same reason that you rev it up on your launch. You want to be in the power band with as much throttle as possible.
Coming out i do all right i start at about 2500 rpms ease out of it then gun it. my 60 fts are any where from 2.22-2.35
I'm gonna try it next time I go up there but im not gonna make a habit of doing it. just wanna see if it might shave a 10th off or something.
