Finally got my 2023 Mach 1 broken in (1/4 mile & 0-60)
I hit the 2000-mile mark, so I decided to see if those online numbers are legit haha… My Dragy is super helpful for this
COMPLETELY STOCK!
0-60 - 4.7 seconds
1/4 mile - 12.6 seconds
This was done on a regular street, not a prepped track.
I used drag mode, manually shifting the A10, and brake boosted at 1.2k rpm.
This was on my private road in front of my secluded house in the Florida Everglades lol.
I need to work on my launch technique; if I could nail a 4.1 for 0-60, I could easily manage a 12.1 in the 1/4 mile!
I’m confident I can achieve an 11.9 in the 1/4 mile and 4.0 for 0-60 with a perfect launch.
Any tips are welcome
P.S. I LOVE THIS CAR!

Congrats I just hit 7,500 miles on mine since I picked it up in February I can’t stop driving it You should check out the FRP Drivers camp if you can, it was amazing
Thanks, my friend and congrats to you too I’m seriously in love with this car haha I’ve had quite a few other cars, but nothing compares to this feeling
Have you tried drag mode with the paddles off
Thanks for the tip I’m definitely going to give that a shot I thought I could handle it manually, but from what I’ve heard, it seems like letting the 10r80 do its thing is the way to go haha
I’ve honestly never used my paddles in drag, just sport and track In auto, it shifts HARD though
I tried without the paddles, and it skipped 2nd gear Is that normal My times were all over the place because of it lol
That’s strange Were you spinning Mine goes through all the gears in drag
Yes, it definitely spun right around 6k in first gear and then jumped straight to 3rd Super weird I’ve had the best results manually Maybe it’s my tires haha Sorry for all the questions I usually know my stuff, but I’m coming from the JDM side, so there are a lot of differences
Yeah, that makes more sense Mine has short-shifted a few times when spinning You’ve got me wanting to try drag mode with the paddles lol By the way, I wouldn’t recommend driving around in drag mode all the time I’m not sure of the exact term, but it seems to put more load on the transmission and it heats up a lot quicker I usually keep an eye on my trans temp on the display
My car is on drag radials and E85, but otherwise stock, and I can run 11.5-11.8 consistently
