Cant win Drag Race

[Rubicon]

I have Dodge Viper, played 5-6 drag races but now even if my cars level is high than recommended I cant win any drag race, I have installed every upgrades, its not about my gameplay because im hitting every clutch right, but still loosing to 300-500 ms each races left(3-4) on medium mode, not hard

perfect shifting isnt enough. is your start perfect too ? thats far more important

[MARACUTAIA]

Exactly what Vazco said. I also noticed if you don´t have a perfect start its really hard to do good times on drag racing.

Tips: Make sure you are throttling the accelerator during the red lights countdown (even if it does nothing ingame to help you get the perfect start its does help to have you mentally prepared to time it properly on the green light.)

And don't forget the nitro

Try timing your high throttle to final light before takeoff, I normally boost after my first shift. Its 50/50 win since it seems the AI can enter a hidden gear due to the rubberband bs.

Try using nitro at different times and see what works for you. Sometimes I boost after 1st shift, but I get better times when I boost a little before I shift to 5th. I'm using the Challenger though, not the Viper.

I was falling short on the Bellflower race though my car level was above the recommended level. But it is just a recommendation. Plus most of my higher scoring parts were for suspension or tires or something, not really bosting my engine power.

I went back and redid some of the earler drag races to farm for parts, did some of the speed traps to get loot (easy win with a drag spec), and made sure to switch to my drag car whenever I found the random loot crates, then redid Bellflower without a problem.

idk why u would find out an old topic just to paste that.

Here's some fun fact for drag event:
1. burnout actually doesnt do anything and doesn't affects grip( just try it with no burn, full burn, perfect burn.)
2. the true shifting point is around 1 bar below the "perfect" shifting point, just compare the time yourself.
3. boost good, usually do it at last gear and all, but a set of Nitro Chemist matters more.

After Hotshots update. Now you can easily win the drag race.

Perfect shift at least 3-4 times and should be good.
I have for my tips and tricks and need things to do it right now.
1. Keep grinding on ace mode until you get lucky a yellow part with a nitro icon. and make try to open the live reward by using the drag car. (or wait for during boost crate event)
2. You must be applied a yellow part with The Nitro chemist Bonus for all same 7 parts to active.
Don't reroll the under 400. Because it's really expensive to spending more scraps
3. Reroll the affixes and set as Pure and Frenetic. Which is really beat easily time on ace mode.
4. You can earn the nitro chemist fully upgraded+affixes when you finish the summit in a rank. (Gold and Platinum Mostly) but it's really hard on PC,PS4.

drag is (more or less) the same as it have been since launch.

Dont bother burn.
Quick-shift from 1-4, Boost, shift to 5th.
Done.

What a dumb necro.

Yeah, I found the same in terms of shifting.

Re-roll your parts to max out Pure and Frentic. Aim to eventually get a full NC set with both maxxed out. After that you need nothing else.

Is muddy available for drag cars? I think a NC muddy set would be useful for certain escapes if you compete in Summits.

Nope. Neither is extra-pump.

Off topic, but related to my last question, is muddy useful for RR or RX? I think it is available for both.
