Racing gears for an auto transmission Options

[mrgrape]

k so i realize when ur racing u still h ave these options
2 and L and O/D off
basically i told my friend who drives a gti to take my car for a spin
and he put the gear in L then 2 then D
and i was like holy **** the torque!!!!!
same with O/D off i think i was going faster
so lets say ur at a drag race
what is the best way to race using all these gears

yeah... i agree with super... all L and 2 do is prevent the car from shifting into a higher gear... when driving you are holding onto the steering wheel, so acceleration and braking are less noticeable as well as forces while turning

and x2 if i were you id slow down a bit, no offense... but you seem to be one of those drivers i stay FAAAAAAR behind and only wish a cop would pull you over
