Racing from a Stop or from a Roll?

[youngvr4]

id wrather race from a roll, dont wanna kill my tranny or transfer case and whatnot. though if its that serious, i'll give em a awd 6000rpm clutch dump if they insist

[TatII]

i have never ever caught a race from a stop with strangers. however i have countless roll on races so roll on races for me.

I like roll races starting at like 20...then going to 80 or so, just to see who's faster withing that midrange.

Also, i got a 95 tbird that is slow from a dig, but once she's moving it's alright-nothing spectacular.

I like racing from a Dig. AWD....... nuff said.

I prefer anything i can get. I love racing from a dig, even if its a front wheel drive car i am lauching i still love doing it. Racing from a roll to me is more of a who's car is faster. Not a "i'm a better driver." But i prefer to choose the "i'm A better driver."

I'm not picky, but I prefer from a Dig...

Haven't tried launching the Camaro yet... I'm sure that'll be interesting.

Axle hop and tire spin aren't your friend. You'll find out that the stock suspension (Provided the car is stock) is less then ideal. Oh yeah, and the 100+ ft lbs. of torque over your 240 will be very noticeable at launch.

I prefer from a dig. As much as people give me crap for a 2.2 sec. 60' time, I can outlaunch alot of people I come across.

Yeah, I had a lapse of judgement lastnight.

Figured I could launch the car at 3000rpm... well that was a stupid assumption. Was thinking I was still driving the 240z... What resulted in was about 50ft of parallel lines of Kuhmo dust on the freeway onramp.

Fun though.

Luckily tires are cheap for your car though. You can pick tires up for like $100 each easily.

I bought 4 tires on ebay for $350/ plus S&H. So what if they're not namebrand

not that my stock 1500 is exactly gonna break into the 11s i still prefer from a dead stop. thats the only way to really compare a vehicles guts. i dont care wut anyone says, one guy honkin his horn or waving isnt exactly the most scientific of acceleration tests. when the pro drag racing organizations start their races from 50 ill change my mind.

Dig...

o yeah and even tho im a chevy guy, that R/T is freakin awesome lol. now i gotta get a pic of my trucks right rear tire spinnin on here hahaha

I prefer digs b/c i can launch like hell on most people, but i get mostly from a roll cuz nobody ever lets me know they are going to race me
