I did some work with a race track 2 weeks ago. Most of the time we spent there was at the building at the drag strip. There were a couple of guys out there “testing” there stuff. Before I left I pulled up next to a Duster. It had a 350 with a blower and I did not look at the rest.

I do know I jumped the start by a mile. Well I lost and I was not racing but I was having fun. It did sift around 5,500 into second and third. It did not shift into overdrive till I let off the gas but I drove nice at 94 mph. I do think the speedometer is off by 3% but I thought that biased off the GPS (it could be that I look at it form the side.

I did not floor it and I did not give it everything it had. I had my wife sitting next to me and all of our junk in the back of the car.

Yes have more people in the car would affect when it will shift.
