[QUOTE="ddv_nk12, post: 1063791559, member: 115822"] I just came back from a quick test drive. I'm not happy with my launching. I think I can improve on it. I tried as what ad_eg suggested. Rev to 1.5k rpm then launch. I find that the car is struggling to move. I mean of course as I release thee clutch, I rev more but still quite slow. So, I tried to rev to 2k rpm then launch. Quite similar result but slightly better. Since 1.5k and 2k rpm didn't work for me. I revved till the rev limit which is 5k rpm. Not much of tyre spinning as I controlled the clutch. Felt more power but not moving. I think this must be because I was controlling the clutch. Finally I tried revving to 3k rpm. This was much better. Just a little spin but the response was quite satisfying. Then, I came back as I didn't want to stay too long at the same place as I might invite unwanted visitors (police). Maybe tomorrow, I'll try 2.5k rpm to see if that eliminates the tyre spinning. Those experienced ones out there, care to share how to play with the clutch and throttle? About the tyre pressure, I'll try with lower psi for front first. Then, if can, I'll try 40psi for both front and rear. [/QUOTE]
