so today i purchased a mustang mach 1 for the upcoming tounament i am organizing, and upgraded it completely but when i go on the speed test for some reason on take off it bogs i've tried to play with the first gear the suspension and the LSD but it stays the same.

it's like i have to much traction

so can anybody give me some advice on what to do so i can move on with the rest of the tuning
 
Try shortening the gear your launching in. I launch in 2nd.
 
i'll try that thank you
 
lsd won't affect your launch. Shorten first, lower the rear, stiffen the springs, or a combination of all that. Also camber, add chamber to take away some traction.

Or so they say. Adjust it anyway to be safe.


I have the pleasure of having one the fastest Mach 1's around and that car has a lot of stuff to watch out for. Follow dr_slumps tuning guide, and set it up like you would any other car. Then fine tune the hell out of it. Soft suspension and REALLY short gears help.

I don't think the Mach 1 is weak enough to profitate from provocated wheelspin through camber or a lower rear.

Shorten the gear (btw try a first gear launch if you haven't done that yet). A transmission tuned for 1/4mile can easily handle a super short first gear, at least in the most cases.
 
Oh I forgot. Absurd amounts of toe works wonders as well.
 
I love my mach 1, great car.

Don't change the subject, we know you have the fastest supra, rx7, GTR 09, GTR 12, fgt no stripe, viper acr and gtd and coupe, skyline r34 r33 r32, and also the Nissan leaf.
 
All lies, except the Nissan leaf, mine is beast.
