Racing With An Automatic (from vancouveraccords.com forum): Rev your car to 1.5 in D4. When light turns green, shift to D3. When you hear it change to second gear, shift to 2. Hold it to about 5 then shift to D3. When you hear you car go into 3rd gear, shift to D4.
umm...how are you going to rev your car to 1.5k in D4 before the light turns green?
Wouldnt the car accelerate when you rev while in gear?:confused:

whoa.. for the safty of your tranny do NOT do antyhing mentioned in this thread. automatics are automatic. no need to shift. they will break
i agree you should stay in drive unless towing something it is your ride don't destroy on some bad info and it is really bad if you want to shift get a manual
