It does slow down but you modulate brake and throttle so you maintain desired speed. Then when you're ready to go, just let off. Car feels like a V8 off brakeboost

It doesn't matter how long it takes somone to build boost, you still have to build it. If somone else already has it when they start its like starting a race when somone is blowing by you

I'm guessing it's DIVX cause that's the only one I've installed here... I think.

you guys sound like newbies when it comes to brake boosting. This is used alot as an advantage especially on cars with larger laggy turbos. I take that he has a larger turbo than stock. Im pretty sure that stock has excellent spool and its not necessary. But in order to build boost on larger turbo cars and geting a good launch youd have to brake boost. I know im a newbie on this forum but lots of the high horsepower Supra guys use this all the time for drag or roll-on races. It's amazing!

yes, supras are heavy and there are alot of young idiotic supra owners who dont know how to drive. I love my Supra and they are a whole lot of fun to drive especially the insane power and torque you get with the turbo inline 6 design. Straight line racing can be fun after so long. But thats why im getting the Evo too.
