Hey is something wrong with your speedometer? The needle seems to be delayed after you step on the gas? Anyone notice this?

It doesn't matter what gear you're in for a 0-60. Makes no difference whatsoever.

OD will lock up the torque converter for better fuel mileage at 48 mph under LIGHT throttle. D will not.

It has no effect at WOT or lower speeds.
