Default Re: pro stock showdown from Vegas live (and sportsmen testing too)

Yeah but, hes gonna be burning in 2nd and the TA system has the "burnout" mode. Dono if hes using that or something else, but dosent seem like in 2nd that would be a problem with the limiter. Hes running a 727 Protrans, Id PAY to know what ratios and converter though.

You can program your shift points by rpm and just leave the shifter in D for dumb and let the TCM box do the shifting for you all the way down the 1320.

I'm going to think out loud here... Racing a bracket truck with an electronically contolled transmission and a programable TCM for the past 5 years, makes me think the problems Jeg's had, sound more of an electronic issue than a mechanical one. ??? If the shift point was set too high, the shift wouldn't be completed in time before the engine hit the rev limiter. If the shift point was set too low, the transmission would upshift prematurely. Been there, done that. It would be interesting to see what combo Jeggie is running.
