me racing mustang at track *VIDEO*

ok so here is a race i got on camera of me vs a mustang. i beat him more than half way down the track til the end basically. first thing to note while watching is im auto and my tires sqweel into second(listen closely) 2nd thing to note is that 3rd gear bogg i was talking about takes place in this run listen to my exhaust right before the finish it sounds like i let off or somthing but i didnt, it just like stops accelerating then goes again, feels like s*it, like my engine wants to give up on me . -ryan
-*VIDEO HERE*
*edit* the bogg sound occurs at approx 25 seconds into the video rpm goes down then back up in 3rd gear!!?? WTF

You're not in the maximum part of your powerband when you enter the end of the track and that's why it feels like crap. You have to make up most of your time while in second gear.
