Launch control for leaving the pit box, that **** is genius...I never thought of using it for that application!

I really wonder what rpm they run that thing to...looks like it ran 2nd to 80-85 mph. Also sounds like after leaving the pits they shift from first to third...hmmmm might be why 2nd is good for 85 mph!!

However, with a 275/35/18 tire and 7800 RPM, the top of 2nd is 65 MPH
To hit 75 mph you'd have to rev it to 9000. I don't think that you could hit 80-85 in 2nd gear.....
8000 RPM with the stock tires is still only 71 mph.....

Boss 302:
1st 3.66
2nd 2.43
3rd 1.69
GT500:
1st 2.97
2nd 1.78
3rd 1.30
If the Boss can hold 60mph in 2nd, the Boss 302S equivalent is 81mph.
