If those shifts take .25 of a second then just the transmission alone spends over 1 second of the run shifting. Now reduce that shift time to .15, speed up the shift torque recovery time, and now the transmission is only using a little over a half second of a the 1/4 mile run to make gear changes. Note, These numbers are for example...I am not saying the A10 takes .25 to shift. The A10 is definitely slower on the first 2 shifts then gets much quicker on the 4-5 & 5-6. So averaged out it might be close to the example I used.

Thanks King for the explanation. So, the further you take a build like adding a 2650 to the car, you're just not going to drop the ET as much as the 2017-2019 cars would.
