the guy doesnt drive the car very much, and he still needs practice at driving the car, so with alittle more driving he should be running fasterOh i thought that time was with shane driving...running a 13.0 with a crappy driver is pretty good then!

OMG, try launching an fwd car. You've got it REALLY easy!Except you don't break everything if you do it wrong....rev high and drop your clutch and you smoke the tires, rev and drop the clutch on an STi/WRX/EVO and you break drivetrain components.

I was launching at 2k rpms to try to take it easy but i think the lightened flywheel doesnt like that too much. next time i will try at 3500 or 4k. go from there. live and learn.

umm i would try 4500...unless your car is making alot of power at 3500 or 4k....but i doubt it
i usually launch mine at 4500-5000....have done 5500 and 6 but then i just spin

lol damn who's making these rules nowadays? but yeah....I've practiced launching though so i know i'd run atleast a decent time or atleast i think i would haha

DAS is a smaller company out of the cities...i'm sure you guys get your stuff from Jonny Range or someone from that company.
