What are your guys thoughts?? Let me know! Lets talk about it and get some good solid info in here 🙌🏼🙌🏼. All links to everything I use and recommend in the description. Appreciate you guys more than you know!!💯💯🤝🤝
I would say that peddle box is iffy man don't want to have to replace your vital parts and definitely drive in sport man I feel you that you want all the power so you keep it in track but do what makes you happy just be careful
If it was dangerous to drive your 392 Scat Pack in track mode, there would be a warning on your dash or it would say so in the manual. Dodge wants to pay for as few engines and transmissions as possible under the 60,000 mile/60 month power train warranty. I drive my Challenger Scat Pack in Track mode quite often. I say just do it! You only live once! Let it eat!!
It doesn't mess up your ride. I've been rolling daily in my scat track mode for 3 years. Never any issue. The car still rips like the day I bought her. Plus it's engineered to use those drives modes.
@Jr Jr So Mr. Jr Jr who likes to rag on other peoples rides , what makes you so knowledgeable about cars ? And what were you driving before you put those 20K on your scat , and how is it that YOU say anything before 2015 was junk ? Explain to me how you with all your mechanical wisdom came to that conclusion ? My wife drives a 2019 scat LIKE YOU and my 2012 SRT-8 will smoke that car any day of the week but that's because I'm a mechanic and I made it that way . Contrary to what you may believe you don't have the fastest or the best car on the street and even if you did , SO What ! Even if you had enough money for a car that actually is fast you do realize anyone with money can have the same thing , what you clearly do not realize is that in the world of motorsports what is respected MOST is what you can build with your own hands. Think about that for awhile .
I drive my 16 Challenger Hellcat in track mode A LOT. I have over 44K on it with virtually no issues. I am not easy on this car. It has horsepower for days which I try to exploit every chance I can get! Hammer down and enjoy the ride brother.
There isn’t nothing wrong with daily driving a scatpack in track mode at all… it’s all about how you drive it. If you bounce it off the gears on and off the throttle that’s bad but don’t dog it out constantly and you’ll be fine. Also it has a rev limiter so don’t worry too much about the red line.
If your engine isn’t broken in yet meaning you’ve reached at least 50,000 miles,then it will cut off and at certain rpms and temperatures to keep you from blowing it
I have a 16 scatpack with 29k miles on it. At about 14k I bought a tazer to get the quicker shifts. I run track mode 99 percent, never had a problem. The transmissions in our cars are actually pretty damn good. So personally I can't complain. The option is there so use it!
2021 Scat Pack Challenger Wide Body here. Mine redlines like yours sometimes. Usually when the transmission temp is still low. Has happened in all modes. I’ve been driving mine like it was stolen since I left the lot. No issues or complaints here.
Did yours have issues with high beams? I just got the same as you, and when I try to engage the high beams they won’t go on. Only when I press the lever towards me to do a quick flash it works.
the transmission is overbuilt, if its still naturally asperated there should be zero issues. if you bang on it all the time nothing will last long. the car is made for it tho, so run it if you want. if anything is hard on it it would be eco mode
Also bro, track mode is absolutely fine, track mode tightens suspension, steering, and traction/stability, you're 100% fine driving in it 24/7 whoever told you this has no idea what they are talking about bro, join my club
Around town, and on county roads, I run my A-8 Challenger in "Sport Mode", because I absolutely hate "MDS". As far as "break-in" goes, I broke it in, like I intended to drive it. On delivery day, I ripped it hard at full throttle. In 3 years now, I've had no issues at all.
I have a challenger scat pack. I take excellent care of my car. I plan on keeping this car for a really long time so i drive it with respect. You gotta respect the car. Always slamming on the pedal driving on sport or track mode all day is just mistreating it. If you leasing it or not planing on keeping it for a while then go ahead and drive like that. I know how fast my whip is and the only time i unleash the beast is when someone thinks there car is faster then mine when i know its not 😂. Your whip is dope af btw bro 💪💯 some people just got the need for speed so I understand thats why they got a 392 but just dont overdue it fam
I have a 2016 Scatpack and always drive in Custom which is set to TRACK MODE used with the TAZER and have never had an issue. You can also drive in Sport Mode same thing. Remember this car has MDS "multi-displacement system" that deactivates a cylinder bank on the Hemi V8 engine to operate in four-cylinder mode for greater fuel efficiency. By setting to Sport or Track it will never deactivate a cylinder bank something you don't want because its been known to cause lifter issues. More so with the 5.7 but the 6.4 is also prone to have the same issue. I also use the manual shift all the time to control the RPM and shift pattern. I hate driving around town and it shifts into 6th or 7th, just my 2 cents.
This is my second scat pack and the first one I drove in track mode all the time and I do the same in my WB Challenger. Never had an issue with the Charger's tranny or the Challenger's. I like track mode because it keeps the exhaust open.
Got my brand new 2020 scat back in may, 95% of the time I’m in track mode. When I try to do right here comes someone trying to race...lol and right back to track mode I go😂😂 I’m up to 11k miles with no issue.
I have a 2020 Scat Pack also. Do you think track mode is better than sport? I thought track mode was more for road course tracks not street? I’m no expert.
I only use track mode when someone pulls up to race on freeway,after the race I switch back and never goes back on,I usually use it every 2 months for like 2 minutes lol
Big knock on wood lol. I think is more down the line where you would see some issues though.. and I don’t think it’s the same for everyone. I think some cars could handle more than others you know? Just like people.. certain folks can smoke their whole life and be good and others get cancer at a young age. I think it’s the same with these cars. Some can be pushed and be good forever and others will end up breaking down. Just depends on the luck of the draw.
I also have a 2017 daytona 392 n have had 0 problems n run track n shift manual all the time. So like it's a prob with the car. I own 3 hemis n treat them all the same . Modified 2006 daytona n 2015 durango rt . Shift all manually n run them fast n hard . 0 issues
When you bought your car, their was a document you signed that track mode is for the track. The computer tells the dealer how much you keep it in track mode. Look at your warranty document. I’ve been threw it with Dodge.
For me I wasn’t even using the paddles bro. It just happened like that on auto. Shit scares me sometimes. I’m trying to smash out and get that little redline pause lol smh I think once I get it tuned it’ll fix that though
Simply put, track/sport mode means ur car is gonna rev higher (engine does more work) which is especially useless if ur cruising on the highway, and the shifts are gonna be rough. The hemis are reliable so I don’t think ur car is going to break or anything, but thousands of miles down the line ur transmission will definitely start feeling more beat than it should (hard shifts, redlining and not shifting properly, and car bogging when u downshift)
Honestly, that just comes with wear and tear from long time driving anyways, good thing to do though would be follow what some would say, which is change that transmission fluid once and a while, if I remember right, every 50k would be a good time to do that
I have a hellcat, I test drove it in the rain, it rained the first week I had it. I have ALWAYS driven it, not only in track, but w all the stability control systems turned off. Every day regardless of weather. If you are not capable of handling the car you have, you should perhaps seek the necessary skills to do so.
I have mine in track a lot. I believe that if you drive a car like a racecar you will have race car problems. Remember, a lot of racecars will have full rebuilds after every race Keep that in mind lol
Fun fact in an auto it puts less wear and tear on your transmission to run it in track. The reason is because clutch packs arent slipping to allow a more comfortable shift. No slipping just straight into gear. Just not good on your adaptive dampeners. Run a custom setup suspension-auto mode and trans in track mode, prob best combo.
i always drive it in track mode. shifts are beautiful. exhaust sounds way better than any other mode. i, personally, havent had any problems for daily driving it in track mode...yet lol
When you first start the car hold the traction control off till it says it’s off in the dash, my cousin figured that out. It’s never completely off unless you do it that way.
The way to turn it completely off is to hold the traction control button before you start the car and keep holding it until it tells you electronic stability control is off
yeah my 2020 scat pack widebody charger does that in auto it redlines some times kinda freaks me out. now ik im not the only that has that issue some times
Yeah bro. Glad I ain’t the only one as well. That thing be scaring me sometimes too lol. Don’t expect it to do that when you trying to smash out. Probably can be fixed with a good tune.
My 2019 scat widebody doesn’t hit redline like that. So must be an issue with the 2020? I also drive in track mode all the time as soon as it starts up I put it to my custom and go.
Yes sir!! That’s right bro. Honestly can’t go wrong either way. According to my boy who has a Daytona and drove both he said the scat is faster cause it’s tuned different. How true that is I have no clue but just some food for thought. Lmk when you get it though bro 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Got a 2020 charger scatty. I daily drive the car in sport. My best times have all been in sport. All track is good for is a slightly louder car that spins tires in 4th gear😂.
Ive had that issue with it not shifting and itll hang at redline for a sec then itll let the revs fall. Ive done this in manual mode and auto. Glad im not the only one
I just got my rt track pack and it's happened to me...I thought it was broke so I took it back. Dealer said it was all good. So far I'm loving this mopar ride.
www.hotrod.com/articles/chrysler-5-7l-hemi-mds-lifters/ Not all MDS's are the same, but I have a sneaky feeling that the 5.7 and 6.4 from old to latest gen probably suffer from it. These issues are nothing new and have been dated back for many years so much so theres dozens of conversion kits out there for MDS deletes... If your worried about fuel economy and want to stay in eco/mds mode than you probably shouldn't be driving that sort of vehicle.
@@Meph7447 Absolutely nothing wrong with driving in Eco mode. If its a continued problem they would do a recall on it. This is another reason you have a factory warranty to replace shit that breaks. To say anything about if you stay in eco the car isnt for you is dumb af. Just because you drive in a different mode doesnt mean others have to follow you. I have my fun in my car when i want and when i dont i drive in eco.
The issue with shifting you’re having is from beating on the car before the engine is broken in. I have a 2019 392 scat pack wide body challenger with over 8k miles on it, no issues. As soon as I got it home from the dealership I installed an oil catch can (an absolute must for these cars) and as hard as it was, I followed the FCAs recommendations for engine brake-in. This is also a must for these cars despite the debate about its importance. I also waited until the break- in was complete before installing the hellcat wide body air box or any other mods or upgrades. I fully understand the temptation to smash that throttle and do a burnout out of the dealership, but trust me it is worth waiting and doing it the right way. I now drive the piss out of her like I just robbed a liquor store and she never skips a beat. About to replace the factory tires with nitro nt555rs
What are FCA’s recommendation for break in ? 500 miles ? 1000 ? Also, does installing a catch can void your warranty ? My scat WB is on order. Thanks....
I have a 2020 Charger Scat Pack w/ PedalBox and haven’t experienced any redline issues as of yet. I Cruise in Sport Mode most of the time and Track Mode when I’m running someone. But you are right! Cruising is Track is why more FUN!
Haha yeah bro it is and the redline only happens in track mode for me and it happened before I ever got the pedal box so it has nothing to do with that. I’m thinking a good tune will fix it
Ya a tune would be awesome. Waiting for the 2020 Dodge Charger Diablosport Tuner to come out for our car. This would give us all kinds of tuning features for the car. Also we can adjust our fan cooling temps. to get full advantage of the 180 degree thermostat.
My Scat Pack makes a loud noise when shifting gears and when you put it in reverse or in neutral. You can also feel it on how rough it is when changing gears. Now I do know Track mode and Sport mode have your RPMs up higher, and that gives it hard shifts. But now my car gives me rough shifts. Not hard shifts. Dealership is acting like my car is supposed to do that. But the idiots drove it in automatic in plain street mode and drove the speed limit when testing it out. So now I need to take it back and have them ride with me so I can prove to them. I'll be damn to pay all this money on my 2022 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack for it to have issues like this.
Don’t let this dude put stuff in your head tho. Got my scat with headers intake tuned and runs perfectly fine and honestly I chill at eco mode 90% of the time no need to drive track all the time
I use the tazer and I’m always on sport with remapped acc buttons to switch in and out of track and sport quicker.. I agree though track is only when you’re sending it on a roll
I’ve had my widebody Scatpack Challenger for over a year and I stayed in track mode for about a year with no issues Brotha, and I punched it everywhere I go. Now I have long tube headers, aftermarket exhaust, bigger cam shaft, pcm, tcm tunes by hp tuners and I still drive in track mode with no issues soo I’m not sure why they say it’s messes up your vehicle 🤷🏾♂️ also I had a guy who does all my performance work on my car say it doesn’t, why would it be on the vehicle if it messes up the vehicle? 🤔🤔🤔🤔 but Again I’ve had mine about a year in the half and no issues 🤷🏾♂️
That’s a little different from what happened to me in the vid. What happen to me was it hit the redline and didn’t shift. But what your saying used to happen to me as well sometimes. Check out the vid I dropped on the pedal box. Installed that in the whip and fixed that problem plus more!
Track mode is called track mode for a reason, though. Does it honestly sound logical to drive your car in track mode on a regular? It's literally called"track mode. " I rarely drive my 2023 in track mode. Its hard to resist though.
Haha hell yeah bro. I’ve already hit him up about it but he said he’s just trying to get content with the boss at the moment. And he’s looking into selling side boo 🤷🏻♂️
Lol Thanks brotha! I appreciate that 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝. It’s a hard choice. Obviously if you want manual challenger is the way to go. Charger is a lot more spacious. I haven’t ran a 2020 challenger yet so I can’t say which is faster but I got a run with one coming soon!
Bro I live out in Michigan/Ohio but I'm from calif. My family is in Orcutt and as soon as I saw your video I knew it was SM but didnt know forsure till you got off by Broadway 😭😂 Small world.
Thanks brotha! You gotta make sure all notifications are turned on. Just click the little bell and make sure it says all. Appreciate the support bro 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
Those modes have nothing to do with where your driving.Its how you would want the car to react in a certain road setting when you hit the accelerator.Hard driving and burnouts will ruin your transmission quickly.
Track mode will not hurt your car. It does the same thing as many tunes. Just changes the shift point of the transmission and opens up the exhaust valves. Actually rhe problems these engines have is quite the opposite. The issues these car's have is with vehicles like cop cars and work trucks with the 5.7 and 6.4 that sit around and idle or sit in traffic. At low rpm the oil does not always get to the lifter causing the cam to get a flat spot. The MDS engines are even worse. Turn your MDS off keep out of eco mode and drive it like it was ment to be driven with out all the EPA bullcrap.
Track is so hard on the car. I only drive in auto / sport. I don’t think you remember me because I got a new car. I had the avenger at 1st. Dope vid as always
if you have custom mode change trans to street. But change the suspensions/ traction etc to a mix sport/track. For daily driving. You'll still feel stout with the suspension in sport/track but save your trans in the long run.
Yeah I have my custom mixed. Right now the trans is in track on there just cause I do a lot of runs so I wana have that ready at all times lol. I wish they made it to where you can save several customs and switch through them at any time!
I believe it’s a Myth bro!! I’ve had my 2017 392 new and track mode and petal commander almost day one with 33,000 of hell on the street anybody can get it type of driving and the only problem I’ve had is keeping a set of 315’s on longer than 8 months plus the ZF trans are almost bulletproof at stock power
in track mode you only have 10% traction control in sport mode you only have 20 % traction control on the street in the city you need traction control to prevent your back end from coming around on you if you beat your car you will have issues
I have a 2019 392 charger and I have 25k miles on it all with track mode. I literally never drive in eco mode. I’m like start it off learning that it will only be in track mode it will last. I don’t like switching it.
He’s 100% right running in eco mode switched you back and forth between v8 and basically a v4 because it shuts off half the cylinders. It going back and fourth like that isn’t good.
Well shit good thing I never use eco mod! Lol so what it’s only meant to be used on special occasions as well? I mean it Can’t be that bad if it’s a feature that they give to be more cost effective. You gotta think they know people are gonna use it a lot.
Don’t know if you are still watching comments but using the Auto Stick In sport mode is ridiculously fun to drive! (2-3 gears) Traction fully off sucks. Got a weird ass blurb on shifts with RPM.
I had a 2013 srt charger. I hardly ever rode in track mode. I was always in sport mode. All I needed was my suspension to tighten down and sport mode did that. Track mode only when I’m racing.

Honestly, that just comes with wear and tear from long time driving anyways, good thing to do though would be follow what some would say, which is change that transmission fluid once and a while, if I remember right, every 50k would be a good time to do that
2020 392 all services done by dealer sent rod 4 out the bottom of the block 59000 miles drove it in track mode 99% of the time it will happen
I have a hellcat, I test drove it in the rain, it rained the first week I had it. I have ALWAYS driven it, not only in track, but w all the stability control systems turned off. Every day regardless of weather. If you are not capable of handling the car you have, you should perhaps seek the necessary skills to do so.
Lol I feel you bro 🤙🏼🤙🏼
Just got mine on Friday factory order like yours but with sun roof. Man I'm happy af!
That’s right bro! Congrats brotha! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
@@louiexiii91 thanks brotha! Keep up the good work🤙🤙
Thank you bro. Appreciate the support 🙏🏼🙏🏼
I have mine in track a lot. I believe that if you drive a car like a racecar you will have race car problems. Remember, a lot of racecars will have full rebuilds after every race
Keep that in mind lol
Fun fact in an auto it puts less wear and tear on your transmission to run it in track. The reason is because clutch packs arent slipping to allow a more comfortable shift. No slipping just straight into gear. Just not good on your adaptive dampeners. Run a custom setup suspension-auto mode and trans in track mode, prob best combo.
i always drive it in track mode. shifts are beautiful. exhaust sounds way better than any other mode.
i, personally, havent had any problems for daily driving it in track mode...yet lol
Lol same 🤷🏻♂️
It’s what the car was made to do
That thang is ROARING!!!! Keep grinding bro!
Yes sir! Appreciate you brotha 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
Remember he is located somewhere other than the US if you see the MPH goes up 3 digits.
Congratulations on 2.55k 👏 Seems like a couple of weeks ago I subscribed . Keep it up, your work gets better and better my friend 👍
Thank you brotha! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝 Gonna keep improving and going Up 🙌🏼🙌🏼🏁
Starting to become my favorite channel, i started watching your vids a about a month ago when i got my 2020 Scatpack charger in pitch black clearcoat🔥
That’s right! Congrats on that bro 🙌🏼🙌🏼 and thank you brotha! 🙏🏼🙏🏼 I appreciate the support 🤝🤝
When you first start the car hold the traction control off till it says it’s off in the dash, my cousin figured that out. It’s never completely off unless you do it that way.
Yes sir. I do that most of the time as well 🤙🏼🤙🏼
You can hold down the button for a while after the car is running it’s the same thing
The way to turn it completely off is to hold the traction control button before you start the car and keep holding it until it tells you electronic stability control is off
Yes sir 🤙🏼🤙🏼 appreciate the feedback bro
Bro I swear you just look like an amazing guy. An amazing friend to have and mess around with
Appreciate that Mark
yeah my 2020 scat pack widebody charger does that in auto it redlines some times kinda freaks me out. now ik im not the only that has that issue some times
Yeah bro. Glad I ain’t the only one as well. That thing be scaring me sometimes too lol. Don’t expect it to do that when you trying to smash out. Probably can be fixed with a good tune.
Same here, it makes me feel like a dumb driver lol also hurts my heart when I hear it lmao
My 2019 scat widebody doesn’t hit redline like that. So must be an issue with the 2020?
I also drive in track mode all the time as soon as it starts up I put it to my custom and go.
Notification Gang 💯 #RespectTheGrind
My man! Appreciate you bro! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
No doubt .. Don’t know what I’m grabbin Bro it’s either the Daytona 392 or the Scatty 🧐🤷🏾♂️ it’s coming tho #Staymotivated
Yes sir!! That’s right bro. Honestly can’t go wrong either way. According to my boy who has a Daytona and drove both he said the scat is faster cause it’s tuned different. How true that is I have no clue but just some food for thought. Lmk when you get it though bro 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Got a 2020 charger scatty. I daily drive the car in sport. My best times have all been in sport. All track is good for is a slightly louder car that spins tires in 4th gear😂.
Damn your spinning in 4th? Your shit must be different lol. Congrats on the car bro 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Ive had that issue with it not shifting and itll hang at redline for a sec then itll let the revs fall. Ive done this in manual mode and auto. Glad im not the only one
Yeah quite a few people have said they experienced that. Gonna makes a video on it soon
I just got my rt track pack and it's happened to me...I thought it was broke so I took it back. Dealer said it was all good. So far I'm loving this mopar ride.
That’s all they just said it was all good?
Eco until i feel like messing around. Or someone wants the gap. Then i switch to sport.
I heard eco might not be too good for your car if you have a hemi. Gonna drop a video on it soon
@@louiexiii91 did you drop the video yet very curious
Not yet. Going to very soon. Thanks for reminding me
www.hotrod.com/articles/chrysler-5-7l-hemi-mds-lifters/ Not all MDS's are the same, but I have a sneaky feeling that the 5.7 and 6.4 from old to latest gen probably suffer from it.
These issues are nothing new and have been dated back for many years so much so theres dozens of conversion kits out there for MDS deletes... If your worried about fuel economy and want to stay in eco/mds mode than you probably shouldn't be driving that sort of vehicle.
@@Meph7447 Absolutely nothing wrong with driving in Eco mode. If its a continued problem they would do a recall on it. This is another reason you have a factory warranty to replace shit that breaks. To say anything about if you stay in eco the car isnt for you is dumb af. Just because you drive in a different mode doesnt mean others have to follow you. I have my fun in my car when i want and when i dont i drive in eco.
The issue with shifting you’re having is from beating on the car before the engine is broken in. I have a 2019 392 scat pack wide body challenger with over 8k miles on it, no issues. As soon as I got it home from the dealership I installed an oil catch can (an absolute must for these cars) and as hard as it was, I followed the FCAs recommendations for engine brake-in. This is also a must for these cars despite the debate about its importance. I also waited until the break- in was complete before installing the hellcat wide body air box or any other mods or upgrades. I fully understand the temptation to smash that throttle and do a burnout out of the dealership, but trust me it is worth waiting and doing it the right way. I now drive the piss out of her like I just robbed a liquor store and she never skips a beat. About to replace the factory tires with nitro nt555rs
What are FCA’s recommendation for break in ? 500 miles ? 1000 ? Also, does installing a catch can void your warranty ? My scat WB is on order. Thanks....
I have a 2020 Charger Scat Pack w/ PedalBox and haven’t experienced any redline issues as of yet. I Cruise in Sport Mode most of the time and Track Mode when I’m running someone. But you are right! Cruising is Track is why more FUN!
Haha yeah bro it is and the redline only happens in track mode for me and it happened before I ever got the pedal box so it has nothing to do with that. I’m thinking a good tune will fix it
Ya a tune would be awesome. Waiting for the 2020 Dodge Charger Diablosport Tuner to come out for our car. This would give us all kinds of tuning features for the car. Also we can adjust our fan cooling temps. to get full advantage of the 180 degree thermostat.
Ima go with a remote tune little more expensive but way better gains
My Scat Pack makes a loud noise when shifting gears and when you put it in reverse or in neutral. You can also feel it on how rough it is when changing gears. Now I do know Track mode and Sport mode have your RPMs up higher, and that gives it hard shifts. But now my car gives me rough shifts. Not hard shifts.
Dealership is acting like my car is supposed to do that. But the idiots drove it in automatic in plain street mode and drove the speed limit when testing it out. So now I need to take it back and have them ride with me so I can prove to them.
I'll be damn to pay all this money on my 2022 Dodge Challenger Scat Pack for it to have issues like this.
Don’t let this dude put stuff in your head tho. Got my scat with headers intake tuned and runs perfectly fine and honestly I chill at eco mode 90% of the time no need to drive track all the time
Who you go with for the tune?
Jay Greene and duster hoff top ones I’ve heard of
I mostly drive in eco mode just put it in track when other cars want to race for the most part. I do put it here in there just to have fun.
I need to be more like you lol
Take fuse 25 out for about 20-40s what it does is basically refreshes your calibration so the car forgets how you drive
I would argue eco mode is worse for the car than getting on it
There you go with another banger
My man! Appreciate you bro! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
I use the tazer and I’m always on sport with remapped acc buttons to switch in and out of track and sport quicker.. I agree though track is only when you’re sending it on a roll
Yeah I gotta get better about that cause I tend to keep mine in track at all times lol
I’ve had my widebody Scatpack Challenger for over a year and I stayed in track mode for about a year with no issues Brotha, and I punched it everywhere I go. Now I have long tube headers, aftermarket exhaust, bigger cam shaft, pcm, tcm tunes by hp tuners and I still drive in track mode with no issues soo I’m not sure why they say it’s messes up your vehicle 🤷🏾♂️ also I had a guy who does all my performance work on my car say it doesn’t, why would it be on the vehicle if it messes up the vehicle? 🤔🤔🤔🤔 but Again I’ve had mine about a year in the half and no issues 🤷🏾♂️
I agree. I’ve since heard a few reputable people say it won’t harm the car
I have a 2022 Challenger Scat Pack Widebody with a 6 speed manual so my transmission only has track mode, lol.
Banger Alert🚨‼️ love and appreciate the consistent uploads Louie 💪🏾🔥
People like you that keep me motivated to do it brotha! Appreciate you my man 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
Who Is LouieXIII 💪🏾💯🙏🏾 keep it up you’re gonna be big
💯💯 without a doubt brottha! 💪🏼💪🏼🏁
My 2019 R/T acts weird too when i floor it while driving throttle doesnt respond sometimes
That’s a little different from what happened to me in the vid. What happen to me was it hit the redline and didn’t shift. But what your saying used to happen to me as well sometimes. Check out the vid I dropped on the pedal box. Installed that in the whip and fixed that problem plus more!
Will check out the pedal box. 👍
Yes sir. Either that or a tune bro. If you got the money the tune is a better option
I have a 19 RT plus and that can happen sometimes but overall I don’t have any lag or false shifts
Yeah it doesn’t happen often but trips me out when it does. Pretty sure a good tune will take care of it
I hear it both ways. I just drive it the way I want. I like sport mode too, i mix it up but I don't kill it. Enjoy the ride and be safe.
Track mode is called track mode for a reason, though. Does it honestly sound logical to drive your car in track mode on a regular? It's literally called"track mode. " I rarely drive my 2023 in track mode. Its hard to resist though.
I dont use track mode mostly custom and sometimes sport when I'm gonna get on the highway
You still ain’t used track bro?? Lol I thought you were gonna give it a try?
Louie would you consider a run with Rush Shift ? He’s got a nice whip too
Haha hell yeah bro. I’ve already hit him up about it but he said he’s just trying to get content with the boss at the moment. And he’s looking into selling side boo 🤷🏻♂️
A secondary car would be great 👍
Yeah think he wants either a truck or jeep
Had to sub the Ricky Bobby part got me 😂😂 but idk if I wanna get a 392 challenger or charger.. nice vid bro I’ll for sure continue tuning in 💪🏿💯
Lol Thanks brotha! I appreciate that 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝. It’s a hard choice. Obviously if you want manual challenger is the way to go. Charger is a lot more spacious. I haven’t ran a 2020 challenger yet so I can’t say which is faster but I got a run with one coming soon!
I would nit believe track mode is the problem. However I would let the trans Temps get to normal before beating on it.
Bro I live out in Michigan/Ohio but I'm from calif. My family is in Orcutt and as soon as I saw your video I knew it was SM but didnt know forsure till you got off by Broadway 😭😂 Small world.
Haha that’s crazy man. Small world indeed!
Great Video Bro! Quick Question how come I never get your video notifications every time you post even though I have them turned on..?
Thanks brotha! You gotta make sure all notifications are turned on. Just click the little bell and make sure it says all. Appreciate the support bro 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
Those modes have nothing to do with where your driving.Its how you would want the car to react in a certain road setting when you hit the accelerator.Hard driving and burnouts will ruin your transmission quickly.
Track mode will not hurt your car. It does the same thing as many tunes. Just changes the shift point of the transmission and opens up the exhaust valves. Actually rhe problems these engines have is quite the opposite. The issues these car's have is with vehicles like cop cars and work trucks with the 5.7 and 6.4 that sit around and idle or sit in traffic. At low rpm the oil does not always get to the lifter causing the cam to get a flat spot. The MDS engines are even worse. Turn your MDS off keep out of eco mode and drive it like it was ment to be driven with out all the EPA bullcrap.
Exactly!! MDS does far more damage to your engine than track mode
Track is so hard on the car. I only drive in auto / sport. I don’t think you remember me because I got a new car. I had the avenger at 1st. Dope vid as always
Congrats bro! And thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
if you have custom mode change trans to street. But change the suspensions/ traction etc to a mix sport/track. For daily driving. You'll still feel stout with the suspension in sport/track but save your trans in the long run.
Yeah I have my custom mixed. Right now the trans is in track on there just cause I do a lot of runs so I wana have that ready at all times lol. I wish they made it to where you can save several customs and switch through them at any time!
Probably I'm getting a 392 Scatpack after finishing my degree.
Thats right! Got your goals in order my man! Good stuff 🙌🏼🙌🏼
@@louiexiii91 Thank You so much
No doubt 🤙🏼🤙🏼
When I finish I’m getting a mustang gt and hopefully in a few years I’ll get a hellcat
Might just pick one up this week
That’s right! Sounding like a big boss with that sentence lol
@@louiexiii91 just watching you drive it around does haha good video!!
Haha appreciate you brodie 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
Love watching videos about these man this my dream vehicle 💯
I drive around in eco mode like 60% of the time and the rest street/sport
Haha I’m like the opposite of you bro. I’m like 70 track 25 sport 5 steet lol
whats eco mode? 💀
😂😂 right lmao
Who Is LouieXIII hahah yeah man I got a kid so I’m extra careful but I definitely put it in street/sport when I’m out with the homies cruising
That’s right bro. I’m just mad extra with my shit lol I need to chill out on it a bit
I believe it’s a Myth bro!! I’ve had my 2017 392 new and track mode and petal commander almost day one with 33,000 of hell on the street anybody can get it type of driving and the only problem I’ve had is keeping a set of 315’s on longer than 8 months plus the ZF trans are almost bulletproof at stock power
Hey bro , I asked the same question to B mason he knows those 392 left and right and he said drive it how ever you want it won't mess anything.
Heard the same from him and raced x. I feel the same way now
@@louiexiii91 💪💪 great videos bro keep it up !
Thanks brodie 🤝🤝
in track mode you only have 10% traction control in sport mode you only have 20 % traction control on the street in the city you need traction control to prevent your back end from coming around on you if you beat your car you will have issues
Keeping working hard! Got a big future Fosho, love the videos!
Thank you brotha I appreciate that! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
I'm rockin with the channel bra.. gotta get my shit right so I can get my self one..
Thank you brotha! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝 yes sir! Just grind hard and stay consistent man. You’ll have one in no time 💯💯🏁
I drive everyday and track mode for the past 4 years in my car is perfectly fine
I have a 2019 392 charger and I have 25k miles on it all with track mode. I literally never drive in eco mode. I’m like start it off learning that it will only be in track mode it will last. I don’t like switching it.
Haha sheesh! That’s right. You’re walking proof that it can’t be that bad.
Running it in Eco where it switches in to 4CYCL mode is actually worse than track mode
Really? That’s the first I heard of that. Do explain
He’s 100% right running in eco mode switched you back and forth between v8 and basically a v4 because it shuts off half the cylinders. It going back and fourth like that isn’t good.
Well shit good thing I never use eco mod! Lol so what it’s only meant to be used on special occasions as well? I mean it Can’t be that bad if it’s a feature that they give to be more cost effective. You gotta think they know people are gonna use it a lot.
My car stays in sport mode that’s my custom with paddles on
Yeah ima have to keep mine in sport more often rather than track. I’m actually a lot better about it now thn before lol
I’m like eco mode 95% of the time 5% 😂😂😂😂😂😭 but naw I only put it in sport when I wanna go fast
Haha 😂 😂 me too bro.. only problem is I always wana go fast! 😂😂😩
Who Is LouieXIII man I be pushing it but where I live they not having it if I get pulled over I’m going jail 😭😭😭 ain’t nobody got time for it lol
Sheesh! Yeah I feel you bro 100 percent
Who Is LouieXIII we gotta race one day if I’m ever in yo city
Dee With A 392 without a doubt bro! Hmu on Ig so we can kit. Louie.xiii. Link in description. Where you stay?
I had this problem lol. I’m just now use to sports mode.
The only time the cat is not in track is when the track is wet
When you start your car hold the traction control down to fully turn it off👍
Yes sir. I definitely know how to turn it completely off. Sometimes it still cuts power even being fully off though 🤷🏻♂️
The only thing I could think of is track mode doesn’t go into 8th gear ever and holds the lower gears for longer
That’s what I heard but I wasn’t that high in the gears.
That's what it is. Your not gonna go in to 8th on a track so that's why I dose that 🤔 he should know that 😉
Bangers on bangers 👁👄👁!!! Keep grinding fam💙
My man! Appreciate you bro 🙏🏼🙏🏼🤝🤝
Don’t know if you are still watching comments but using the Auto Stick In sport mode is ridiculously fun to drive! (2-3 gears) Traction fully off sucks. Got a weird ass blurb on shifts with RPM.
Damn! I just bought a 2020 R/T and it does that shift thing too!
Should have gotten the 6'er Manual
That’s crazy I skipped through your whole video😂🤣
🤣🤣🤣
I had a 2013 srt charger. I hardly ever rode in track mode. I was always in sport mode. All I needed was my suspension to tighten down and sport mode did that. Track mode only when I’m racing.
I be racing a lot 😂 lol
@@louiexiii91 🤣🤣
i did not buy a 2022 scat to pamper it for 2 mpg, that's for sure. keep it fast and loud 🤘
