Re: automatic tips
yes, you will get spanked by a manual, providing the driver know's how to drive.

Re: automatic tips
Brake torque from a launch it'll be your only chance at getting anywhere against a manual.

Re: automatic tips
Hold the brake, hit the gas a little to where you dont move but your motor is revving up, when the light turns green let off the brake and floor it.

hold the brake pedal down, and feed it power until it either wants to creep ahead, or start to burn the tires... depends on what kinda power you have, in a sunfires case, with it shitty brakes and engine, will probably creep forward..

be forwarned though it is noticebly faster but I've fucked up 2 brake calipers doing this...

Re: automatic tips
haha i own lots of people by power breaking. its soo fun.. i hold the gass and break to about 2500rpms, wait till my boost goes up to 10psi and launch it i make 11 psi in first and 12.5psi in all the rest of the gears..

its so fun to kill niggas with a probe no one suspects it.. btw im not a sleeper no more.. i added a lip so my car looks soo much meaner... i get alot more looks and revs..

o0o well good time.. powerbreaking is fun go try it..
