IMADreamer Posted June 6, 2010 Share Posted June 6, 2010 You sound like a real race driver with all those excuses. lol The trick no one tells you when drag racing a car with lots of torque and not lots of traction mods is to actually not launch the car hard. Get the car moving the best you can then give it hell. Every noob to big hp at the track makes the same mistake every time. Of course practice makes perfect. Everyone I've taught to race I tell them to take off like normal the first time then the next run add a few RPMs at lunch and keep doing that until you've found a spot where you are actually getting the car to bite hard without much slip. Everyone always does the opposite and revs the piss out of it then starts backing off on each run after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
