Maybe they have better gearing than your ‘22 does.

I sure feel like my ‘19 (also a tuned fbo car) should be running quicker and faster than it does.

Do You run primarily on the street or at the track? Got any track times to share here in this thread?

Street

Street

Copy that. Are you using a Dragy? I don’t have one, but I have timeslips from the track. I’ve gone 12.30s (numerous times) and 11.65 on a 150 shot. I was beyond frustrated until I saw Lethal Performance’s ’24 GT with an MT82-D4 tranny run a 10.68 making 830 rwhp.

I really think the gearing is killing the MT82-D4 cars.

Roll racing or from a dig? How much power are you making?

 

[Jayy6]

Roll racing and also haven’t took it to a dyno

My apologies for not asking, but is your car an A10 or manual? For some reason I just assumed it was a manual.

 

[Jayy6]

A10 that’s what’s crazy

 

[Jayy6]

That’s why I think it has power loss

Well yeah, that certainly changes things considerably. A10 trannies are the cheat code to quicker/faster times. Are the cars you’re racing autos as well?

I mean that was first roll racing meet I had but I’m pretty sure the s650 was but he had nothing else and the gen5 Camaro headers and e was manual shouldn’t have lost to none of them s650 has no tune obviously only headers

The only thing I can think of with the S650 is maybe Ford tweaked shift points to gain an huge improvement over the S550’s shift points.

I have seen videos of some 6 speed FBO SS Camaros that have beaten A10 cars though, so not sure what to make of that.

take it to a dyno and talk to your tuner. Its pointless guessing.

 

[Jayy6]

Yeah that’s what I’m planning to do take it to a dyno
