You think this funny? Maybe if I raise the fuel cutoff?

I see in the warranty forum that someone is trying to steer a creek. Perhaps he has some knowledge

Anyone with any similar experience?

One of the many factors why AT is better than MT higher top speed in reverse.

Also have you really not done a 3.7fd swap? With a 25.7” drag radial, and raised rev limiter to 10,000rpm? Obviously not or you would be hitting 60 with ease. That’s your only problem, go do that and you’ll be beating those mustangs in reverse in no time. You’ll never have a minivan steal your parking spot while you try to back in again.

Ummm . . . just a thought . . . you don't happen to have tires with a uni-directional tread pattern? If so, you're gonna need to swap them from side to side to have sufficient grip to make a good 0-60 run.


Don't ask me how I know . . .

I think there is more useful info here than in the actual 0-60 thread

Like I said... hybrid or full electric just put the motor on in reverse... kind of cheating.

I guess a rear wing would be a bad idea?

Not necessarily (although I can't say for sure which direction this car is headed).
