How to get the best start when flooring it?

tbh thats what I thought when he said it

Or 414bhp M3?

Either/Or.

Both would destroy any Renault!

someone posted a video of a hillclimb/sprint start a while ago and i think they said they use 4-5k. it was very impressive anyway. it takes a lot of skill to effectively feather a clutch at those kind of rpms and, personally, happier using 2-3k on the odd occasion i might play with starts. there'll only be 10ths in it. what are the 1/4ml guys seeing in the first 64ft? mid 2s?

I was racing a BMW M3

I don't flaw it 24/7 :rasp:

Just when you want to have a bit of fun!

Probably said before, but it's spelt and pronounced 'floored'. Maybe his M3 was broke? :quiet:

everyone is retarded! read the thread men he just wants to know the best ways to launch not how he dismantled a m3 or whatever it was! stay on topic

personally i tend to get the car rolling before i floor it, save tyres, saves clutch saves everything.... but a full on standing start i always got the best results by hovvering just below 3k and slipping the clutch the first few feet

you need to get a good sweetspot between forwards motion and tyre slip. Imagine you are trying to make ABS work in reverse lol

personally i just give it quick launch and once its starting to roll then hammer the throttle that way it doesnt spin in first as long as its dry (and thats with just under 190bhp and 160lb/ft!) im lazy so i keep ESP on for a launch its not like it affects it that much just enough to get the power down
