I would have thought that would be easy top end given your gearing (4.4:1 ?) but 0-60 and 100 yours should have it no sweat...

I was under the impression that you were on 3.6 front and 4,4 rear, I'm sure I read that in P/Ford.

If that's not the case then I reckon you will have a hard time getting it off the line without hurting the clutch as the first gear is a bit tall, your .80 and the shape of the car should give better top end than mine although having said that I don't know the drag of that rear spoiler.

You could get 60 in first with your gearing but I have tried that before and it was slower than using second as well.

I tried it with a H pattern dog box back to back and it was faster using both gears.
