I have never ran the quarter mile in my fully modded + meth car... but based on the optimal shift points for a 6AT, (6200 RPM) I would be around 112 MPH at that RPM in 4th gear. Has anyone with full mods tried shifting into 5th manually to attain a higher trap speed? Or is winding out 4th gear to redline the best way to go about it?
