Launching the car with slicks
All, is there any special technique needed to launch the car when running slicks?
I am running
- MT ET Streets 26X10.5 on a set of 15X8 inch Bogart Rims
- Motec M800 with 2 step making 1 bar of boost on a GT4094R
- Boost limited to 1 bar until 40mph
A couple of options I am considering are
- Preload the suspension by using the hand brake
- Turning the boost up to 1.4 bar at the line
- Limiting boost to 1.5 bar until 40mph then letting it go up to 2.3 bar
Any suggestions from those running slicks will be appreciated.
