So uhh do u just drop the clutch and floor it, feather it or something? i can't get my 60 ft below 2.39 and i just think 2.178 is ridiculously good for our cars. nice job man.

Thank you, But it hard to say how I do it, best way is like this, start at 3000 grand not real slow but slowly take foot off the clutch when she feels good PUNCH IT. It all about knowing when your car grabs. YOu can test this out at stop signs and red lights. I NOT SAYING RACE YOUR CAR. Just saying just see if you get that launch down. Any other questions just ask.
