Took the Manta to the Drags last week.

All runs were 14.9 @ 160kmh (100mph)....

I just cannot get it off the line cleanly, so frustrating!, as even with the Auto selector held in the gear one position Manuallyarrow-10x10.png as soon as you release your foot it shifts up into 2nd, combine that with an open centre diff and low down V8 torque it just spins the wheel as soon as you floor it, let off the throttle to modulate the wheel spin and bam second gear.

Long story short may as well start off in 2nd gear

The MPH is good though and if I can sort out the issue with the auto it should run high 13's like the cars below that have the same 100mph terminal speed

Audi A4    2017    AWD    7A    5.0 sec    13.7 sec @ 100.4 mph
BMW 328    2016    RWD    8A    5.2 sec    13.9 sec @ 99 mph
Chevrolet Impala    1996    RWD    4A    5.6 sec    13.9 sec @ 100.9 mph
Lexus GS 350    2007    AWD    6A    5.3 sec    13.8 sec @ 101.8 mph
Mitsubishi 3000GT    1997    AWD    6M    4.8 sec    13.6 sec @ 100.5 mph
Rolls-Royce Phantom    2014    RWD    8A    5.5 sec     13.9 sec @ 100 mph
Volkswagen GTI    2015    FWD    6M    5.6 sec    14.2 sec @ 100 mph
