Your Racing Procedure
Alright just got my standard on the road, and i have been woundering how you get a half decent start at a light. Like say a ricer in a 89 dodge shadow pulls up to you with neon lights so bright that it could blind you, and he's like lets race. of course most of you would laugh and not bother, but i know i would love to rip him, but i can't think of the procedure of going. I know how to get going with the clutch and all, but do any of you have any procedures you go through to burn it up?

I would say grow up and save racing for the track.

Re: Your Racing Procedure
no, i dont want to go around trying to race, id just like to know how to get a decent start if i was to race.
i tried tonight reving it up, then letting the clutch go, but like D16Y said, it hurts the transmission.

The best way is to get in your car, play around, and see what works. Rev to somewhere around 3k and let the clutch out and press harder on the gas. Use that as a guideline and adjust accordingly. Of course you have a stock civic which has no power and no upgrades to get that lack of power to the ground, so don't even bother. Good day...

At a light... put your heal on your brake your toe on the gas... rev to say 4400 and let out the clutch just enough to feel it engage a tad. right when it turns green you let the clutch out and let go of the brake at the same time...you get a pretty quick launch that way. dont spin tires too much and if they dont spin at all too slow.... control the spin with your clutch. hope that helps ....works well for me just takes some practice.
