Re: Launching!!

Stutter Box launch is 7Krpms at about 12-15psi of boost at launch. And I just dump the clutch. at least 50+ passes run that way with out tranny problems. Wasn't until I lowered my launch rpms to the point where my tires grabbed and then wheel hopped like crazy. That's when I broke my tranny.

Basically IMO it's better to either launch gently (ie: roll into it) or launch hard (ie: make damn sure your tires break loose and are spinning) Both ways should yeild you less tranny breakage.
