Hypothetically, if I or someone like me were to race, from a standstill, in an auto ST, would our best bet be to: a) Leave the car in drive with overdrive off and just mash on the gas b) Start in L, shift up to 2 when nearing redline, then shift up to drive when nearing redline in 2 c) Either of the above with some other techniques added in. Hypothetically, of course

QUOTE(doGGy @ Dec 22, 2004 - 7:36 AM) Left foot press brake, put into D, while holding brake, right foot press gas and hold rpm at about 3500 - 4000. Best for quick start... Wanna break your gear box? Same thing, only press gas till 6500 rpm  and hold brake for some time... That would be if you had a high stall converter.. Otherwise, I think it hits like 2500? But that would be the best way to do it.. Unless you want to damage your drivetrain.. Then there are other ways.. Like rev it up in neutral, then drop it to drive.. |
