I promised a video with sound so here is a couple I put together and edited with the free
editor called "VSDC Video Editor". I had to run Video Stabilization on the video mainly
for the 2nd segment, there was so much wind buffeting my head where the GoPro was.
Will try to do another video from outside the car soon, but the video below was obviously
more FUN to make !!!
During the 1st pass I bumped the shifter into 3rd gear from Drive, this took my attention
away from driving and the reason why the car changes lanes, I was looking down briefly!
I'm trying to leave it in Drive and see where the new transmission governor shifts. If you
watch thru the steering wheel, the Tach is on the left and straight up is 6000 rpm, I finally
had to lift so the trans would shift, I think it was about 6300-6500 rpm. I'm wanting it to
shift at 6000 rpm. On the right of the Tach is the Speedometer and straight up is 70 mph.
Not sure home much you can tell with the camera bouncing around.
On launch you hear some tire spin, but then it goes away because I am feathering the
throttle. I'm trying not to over rev the engine and bend another intake valve which has
already happened once.
