Default How do you...

...launch your car on the 1/4 mile??

I'm not asking the peeps with Anti-Lag/Launch Control, cause thats just cheating!!

I cant seem to get it right, either I spin all 4 wheels badly through 1st gear or I bog down and get a wanky 60ft/terminal/time.

Also I ran with 38psi in my tyres before, would I notice a benefit in running with 23-25psi in the tyres this time.. I've convinced myself that I'll possibly get more grip off the line, without increasing drag too much for the rest of the run by doing that?!


Cheers,
Grant
