Ok still got a corrupt .zip file when I downloaded on another PC. ... sigh ... anyone else have any luck?
Yea but that doesn't show the difference a strong launch makes ... which I thought was the point of this thread.
Wanna see a more drastic comparison (not really apples to apples though)? Pause the video at any set of cones near the beginning and notice how many car lengths the red one is behind the yellow one.

red evo = stock tires and feathering takeoff
yellow evo = slicks and full launch

I don't think I'll be doing a 2 step launch... but I for sure won't be just easing away when there's not a quick turn to the timing lights any more.

We usually do 4-5 runs, and I take off easy the first 2 or so until I really have the course down. Last two runs are my go hard runs, and I two step (5900 rpm) for those. Im on stock clutch with 35k, so I try not to launch too often but when your pushing for those last two runs it makes a difference.
