Go into 1st, hit about 3000rpm, drop the clutch initially slow then quick and u have a good launch. If u drop it too quick the wheels will spin.

No, an LSD is a must have for a car with lots of power. If we turbo our lancers etc, we will need an LSD otherwise we will torquesteer like hell or even wheel spin. Trust me if u want a powerful FWD car, an LSD is a must

So doesn't this basically mean that any company coming out with a turbo for our cars will ultimately come out with an LSD shortly after?
