Looking for a good write up on how to do a quick launch for racing. Such as a start for the 1/4 mile

 

There are a ton of threads on this, please search. Also, each car and set up is different and has to be tweaked.

 

hmm . . . DejaVu

 

OMG these threads just keep appearing now. im going go all out and make a video from 50 different angles and hopefully it will get sticky'd and this will never get asked again.

 

Do it!

 

why reply without an answer. Either help the man or ignore the thread. Me, i just dont know. But you need to find the right RPM so the car doesnt bog down (too low) or doesnt start to wheel hop (too high). You want a little tire spin to save your drivetrain. Most people have a two-step rev limiter around 5400-6000 RPM. Slip the clutch a little and off you go. But im no expert.

 

because there are atleast 6 of these threads already and if he searched he would get the answer, and we cant do it like that with our tc-sst

 

Damn you are right! Thats why i said i dont know. Me go to corner

 

dude, just come out the next time we do a track day and you'll get all the practice/tutoring you could want

 

I have a couple of buddies going to the track in May so im looking forward to that. Would you like to come since you live in the suburbs too? I can shoot you a PM with the details

 

keep me up to date, for sure, i'm always up for a track day. a few of us have gotten together a couple of times for stuff like that

 

Ill shoot you a PM

 

Turn off the ASC, put it in sport mode. Hold brake down hard, hold down gas, wait until you see 3,100 rpm's, let off gas, and just sit there. LOL

 

I'll add to this by saying bring a large fan when tracking your car, unless you live in the Arctic. Found out last night how much you lose on your 1/4 mile when it's 79 degrees and your car isnt cooled down enough. Runs were initially 13.3-13.5's doing what EvoOtto does other than the fact I don't start gassing until both cars are staged.

 

Is there an ra mod that will allow launch like the one for the mr?
