Gearbox tuning

Hi, I have 1500 Hp engine and don´t know, how to tune gearbox. If you know how, explain it.

You will need to go to the power grip store and get the gear box for this. Once it is in stalled, point the cursor at the car and select the icon for the gear box tuning.

When adjusting it is about raising or lowering the gear ratio...

You have what is called taller gears and shorter gears. A engine can not just move the car itself, it needs the transmission to do this by starting off in a shorter gears to taller gears. Why they call it shorter gears verse taller gears IDK.

But a shorter gear uses less teeth were a tall gear uses more teeth. The shorter gear will turn 1 time full revolution from 0 top center and back again faster verses a taller gear which turns slower from 0 to 0 in a 360 one time revolution.

So starting with the first gear, you can adjust the gear ratio so you can produce more power to the ground or less. Each gear can also be adjusted as you need it. What your trying to do is make it so you can take off from a dead stop with out the car getting too loose between shifts.

For example I have a 57 Custom by Delray with a full built up V8. And she can punch hard at of the hole shot, and it will break loose every time and I loose the car. It is just not driveable at all much less for drag racing. I had to adjust each gear for my shift periods to quickly jump through my lower gears into my higher gears quickly. This is a trail by error thing. In the end I think I had to add one more gear and now she can haul border line to 200MPH I think it was, and she can hold the track.

Basicly that is what you going to be doing, just like a real racing transmission, your going to need to adjust and test it on the track..

Hope any of this helps..
