You won't win by much, but youll win. To up your chances have about a 1/4 tank of gas or less.

It has been proven again and again that the Mark is faster when the computer does the shifting. It may make you feel better to be pushing the lever forward, click, click, but it won't make you any faster.Blackout said:But also another way to knock off sometime on your ET is to turn off the traction control, turn off O/D, and manually shift the gears.

They made less Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham's then Impala SS's but the SS is worth more
