I'm not sure what your asking. Do you want to know how to launch your car in a race?? Is it auto or manual?? What boost are you running?? What size and brand tires are you running??

with a manual, rev to 4000rpm and sidestep the clutch. if you're in a GT-R or GTS4, rev a little higher before dropping as the AWD system will cause the motor to bog due to a lot of traction.


realise that doing this type of launch may cause clutch chatter and possible driveline breakage if it's a common thing... the instant engagement and shock to the driveline can cause longterm damage to the tranny, clutch, drive shaft, differential, and drive axles.


if your car still bogs at a 4000rpm launch, try installing a boost controller if you're turbo'd to help control the wastegate, therefore allowing the motor to hold boost at low rpm. the original vacuum assist line on the wastegate will begin to open and bleed off boost as soon as you put a load on the motor. a boost controller will close this vacuum line, and only allow wastegate activation at the desired boost level, increasing low rpm boost/power.

Instructions on how to launch a 1982 1300cc Mitsi Mirage:
1. Ensure that you are in "Power" mode
2. Flat foot the accelerator untill you see smoke out the back.
3. Move gearstick in to 1st gear.
4. Drop the clutch and enjoy the .5 seconds of wheel spin.
5. Do not change into second, as you will bog down...
