Hi everyone.

My brick pulls like a horny schoolboy real quick to 180kph (110mph) in drive before hitting the rev limiter at the redline.

The O/D doesn`t accelerate hard, keeps trying to downshift into drive instead of picking up speed.

I don`t mean to sound greedy, but I want more !! 180kph is fine for the drags but I want to try a bit of circuit racing in the summer just for the hell of it, and it is frustrating to know there is so much left unavailable in O/D.

Any easy solutions ??

Cheers Mike.
