What do you guys launch at at the track?

[evanandretti]

And that is all. Going this Friday just curious what you guys are launching at. Don't know how sticky those tracks are, never raced yet. And this will be with street tires. Any other tips will be appreciated. :burnout:

around 3500 slipping the clutch...and feeding more gas....

almost no wheelspin on launch with street tires... i've run 1.9's on streets...

Thanks man I'll try it out!! Was goingto try around 2000 rpm slow off the clutch and rolling into full throttle. Like I said don't know why to expect for traction.

thats the fastest way off the line and the quickest way to burn up the clutch.
dont take me the wrong way I launch like that too but it will burn it up if done too much.

no arguements there...

BUT... also, if you can help it, give her a cool down between runs... hotlapping makes it even harder on her...

5000 to 5300 then just side step the clutch.

^ Then go into wall.

I don't have the heart to do that to my baby

It's just street legal night. Casual runs, just to see what she will do.

since the king of old farts has spoken, i'll fill in the large BLANK he left open...

he's running full slicks on a 150 shot...

on a street tire truck that's just stupid... unless you want a cool burnout...

launch at about 2500 rpm at half throttle! Just enough to rotate the tires a couple of times . Then as the tires start to grab squeeze the throttle to full! At 5600 leave foot planted on throttle and get second! . Riding the clutch at all will fry it!! You will think the truck is spinning and you will have trouble getting home after!

around 1800. Let clutch out then to the floor. Keep floored while grazing clutch and pullin gears. Shift at 5500. But you have to be quick and have your timing just right.
