Re: [Chrysler300] a few U-tubes I don't recall seeing mentioned

A Dynaflow is definitely enhanced by using the low to start off.  I  don't 
know much about the Hydramatics of that era, but believe they started out  in 
low when put in the "Drive" position.   ----gil

Interesting that, in the drag races, they always emphasize the  transmission
is left in Drive.  Perhaps a Hydramatic or a Dynaflow  would perform better
if in Low or Super???

It's been years since  I've driven a Torqueflite car, but I recall punching
"2" altered the shift  points and enhanced performance, also.  I also recall
reading that the  optimum drag race procedure for a PowerFlite car was to
start in "D", shift  to "L" after launch and then shift to "D" again just
before the valves  float.

Thanks,  Paul.  Enjoyed those.  I wonder what General Motors came  up  with as

a "rebuttal"?  Not much I would imagine.    In  1958 GM----at least 
Buick----would have had the advantage in the  brake fade  test with their
finned aluminum 
drums.  It is too  bad Chrysler did not  have the plant capacity and the 
quality in  1957.  They were so superior in  all other product aspects  they
could 
probably have regained  #2 and  maybe  in a  few years....who knows?  
300ly, Gil C.
