Re: Launching!!

You could always just hold the throttle at around 2k and just floor it when you are supposed to go, slipping it when it is at the desired launch rpm. It wouldn't be to consistent, but would help you get off the line quick if you were new to it. Everyone has their own method. That way seemed to work pretty well for me before I had a studderbox. I just did that and launched between 4500 and 5000 rpm.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
