Default New Best (VIDS)

Well took the mach to Raceway Park tonight in new Jersey. Was longing for this cold weather, and boy it worked. I know the car has more though.

Enjoy the videos!

I'd say around 5,800 to 6k.

Beautiful Mach, nice runs, and boy does she sound nice. You're fortunate to have someone recording, my best times are like fishing tales...noone sees them. Great passes man, I think she's got a tad left in her. Shiftpoints??

rygi....your the guy who got me motivated for times like these, even thought I'm still not quite where you are. I think she's got a 12.5 in her, and believe me I'm driving her hard. Shift points are roughly 6,800. 6,500, 6,200. ADVICE?

Man, talk about feeling the love around this joint. Thx man. As far as advice, shifting @ 6.5, 6.3, 6.1 is how I roll after a poopload (months) of trial and error runs. Doesn't feel as manly w/o revving higher, but the pace of acceleration is much more linear (the mph needle doesn't slow down at the top of each gear). No joke, my best mph shot up by 2 when I figured out the magic formula that worked for me. Give it a shot. Oh, and run tire psi just low enough to where you aren't free spinning, running lower than necessary robs your mph/et. I run between 20 and 25 w/ DRs, depending on track conditions. A little spin is good IMO. Let her rip man.
