2015 Ford Edge Sport 1/4 Mile Time

[16MagSport]

I tried sand mode in the rain to see if it would work better, but it sure felt like it was only spinning the front just as far as normal mode.  Maybe it was all 4 spinning!  I'll have to try that again.  I thought sand mode was supposed to be 50/50.  Yes, I have the gauge.  It just doesn't feel like what it is displaying.  The harder I launched it, the worse the 60ft.  Around 2k seemed to be the best.  It went over 2.00 with about 2500rpm launch and it hopped the front tires.  Hopping causes breakage, so I backed off.

Launch is a super touchy thing on these cars, especially once you tune and change power levels. I used to launch at 2200-2400 when it was stock, and that was my best launch location. Now, like you said, I have to launch at about 1800-2k, anything above that the car spins a lot, and 60' gets worse. I would suggest playing with a lower than 2k launch and seeing what happens as well.

Tire pressure makes a big difference also, tire compound on a high mileage tire will also be bad for 60fts..
