1st I dont think he said under 4500..... (but yes 4500 and below could be a failed launch)

2nd I want to see how the owner of the thread does, lets stop thread jacking and arguing and see what numbers w/o stationary rev limit he puts down.

3rd the guy admitted to be told that and not being able to prove it to a point so he is informed now... let it blow over, its how we all learn.

I had mine set at 4500 thinking it would be safer somehow. I've since found out that it's a very bad idea just like warrtalon is saying. It either bogs down, or you get the worst burnt clutch smell ever.

As for using two step or not, it's probably just a matter of personal preference. You can build boost pretty quickly off the line without using it. Although it helps.

2 Step works for me on the track.. cuz then i can concentrate on the tree.. but then again at a light competing vs someone I just take off as fast as i can without launching and actually think I do just as good..!
