    Yes, it's time for another Subscriber Showcase. This time we are going back to drag racing with basically no rules..... just keep in mind the stuff I talked about in the video and what I'm writing here. If there is some sort of confliction then just let me know and I'll clarify.
    - Classes: FWD, AWD/4WD and RWD
    - Game Version: Alpha 4.2.whatever-is-current
    - Send me your Automation Export file on Discord (post it in the showcase submissions channel) before August 27th to be included. Submissions will open up on the 22nd.
    - Build whatever you want, just consider that I'll be driving it
    - Stream likely to be Saturday September 3rd, possibly before then ( i need time to get things organized)

      I don’t know shit about drag racing but i’d assume it’s because the bigger blown/NA motors have an early power peak and carry the power through to the top end. No reason for torque multiplication other than a launch, when after that you can gear the car to top out right at the end of the strip. that’s what makes sense to me

    The gear ratios aren't the issue. Its the shift times.

    I made a drag car that does 6.1s with rwd and 3500hp, but I heavily modded the jbeam files so I'm sure it wouldnt be legal in this competition.
    Had a lot of fun trying to bring the time down lower and lower and eventually reached a point where a wheelie bar was needed, but my lack of knowledge with file editing meant I couldnt add rolling wheels to the wheelie bar. So it scrapes slowing the car down. Without a scrape, I guarantee sub 6 is doable with it.

    use manual gear shift even on gearboxes that have automatic(Dual Clutch and Sequential) so the car doenst hit the limiter and use less gears!, drag cars obviously have way more than enough torque to carry 2 or 3 cars of its own so you don't really need low speed gears, use less gears you can and give it some spacing!
    Also another thing i dind't see you mess much was the cam profile which can help alot especially since you were using VVL, dunno if you changed some stuff between cuts though

Every automatic doesn't know what to do with the amount of torque I have and hang on gear for no reason. Ended up using the single gear continuous and that works. I've done better with a manual and slipping the clutch carrying the front end past the 60 foot but I have a G27 so I got a clutch pedal.
