Automatics and the system of car control
Posted: Sun Apr 24, 2016 10:21 pm
I have a retest coming up for rospa and will be using an automatic. The vehicle is an old saab 900 with a 4 speed auto.
I have had the car two weeks, prev had a lexus gs300 auto.
I'm playing with it and am using the box in the same way I would use a manual. braking before the corner or hazard and then shifting to 2 or3. Starting in1 etc etc. Using the lower gear to balance the car round the corner and overtakes again shifting to a lower gear.
Any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated.
