When you guys are power shifting, do you let up AT ALL? Or are you just holding the throttle in the same position?
It's always kinda scared me whenever I power shift because the gears just didn't feel like they could take it. I had to really force the shifter to the next gear... Is there anything particularly damaging about it?
And I completely believe you could pick up that much time... Letting off at that high of an rpm compression brakes the engine (which was actually a HUGE factor when I totalled my SS
). Although, a gain of .47 seems like a bit of a stretch for me. Was it consistently that much faster for you?

I did this when I had my tranny rebuilt. lol. Wouldn't go into 3rd at over 5k. So next pass I said "you're going into fvcking gear"...and it did but it told me to fvck off! But found out that the cluster shaft was not shimmed properly hence it not shifting right. My new tranny works perfect.

Well, looks like all that crying didn't work...I'm still here.
As for me bringing nothing to the table here: this is a old topic that Hio keeps scraping up from the bottom of his list of bitching when he runs out of things to bitch about.
If anybody has a serious technical question, all they have to do is ask me. A few guys that have hit me up either in SRK or by PM's can vouch for me. This IS SRK and not a technical section, so it's not like I'm here as a technical advisor, I'm here to post up about street racing and kills. I have posted replies to quite a few and have made threads with video's and with kills.

Adam I am off Commercial!!! Why is it so cold down here???? Going to port later.
Hio has beaten up people just for budding in front of him in staging lanes Lmao. He gives me nonstop abuse the minute I see him in person. Relax all of you. Law gives me **** too in person.
Heater helped me pick out lcas for my stang. He can be serious and knows a lot if you ask him privately
