Default 3rd gear chirp! no bull****! dry ground!

took the stang out for a nice little romp today, after washin it, puttin some wax on, and recalibrating the throttle. went from a stoplight, launched perfectly, really hooked, grabbed second, burned the tires for like a full second, then pulled hard through second, then shifted hard into third. i got a nice loud chirp. no bullsh!t. the ground was bone dry, and it was a normal road. my tires have full tread. tried to do it again, but got only a little "scratch" from the rears.


its possible. difficult, you have to nail the shift just right, but definetly possible. if i can do it, anyone can.

Powershifting I could do it stock. It helps to shift a little early not right at the redline.

depending on the tune I run.... with Brents Drag tune....rips into 2nd (AUTO BTW) and chirps 3rd
Freds evo tune once and a while I get a chirp in 3rd...allthough I am still kinda liking EVO tune a little better...just seems quicker and no hiccups.....Brents tune shifting firmness goes a long way... it is FUN to drive
