Ps when i launch my car past 5 K now, my car goes sideways on a straight road, too much torque and i go nowhere.. Thats why i have to feather it at like 4 K thats when i see the best results and NO Major parts get Messed up "I HOPE.... LOL"

well as the thread name reads HOW NOT TO KILL YOUR CLUTCH AND T/C clearly im not sugg people do this, and im lucky enough to have a job where if i break something i can easily pay for it.. i thank you for the heads up but i have been doin this kind of driving for the last 10 years of my life.. i have learned a few things along the way.. including how to launch a dsm. i have had 4 so far.. and the only other reason i did this to my car was i still had the stock clutch in it.. now that i put the act in it, you wont catch me doin this to my car.. again to all people, if you dont know what you are doin, dont do it. you could kill yourself and more importantly, someone else... nuff said

Did the same stuff when my stock clutch was going and before i put my winter tires on... Definatly a lot of fun!

Note: dont do it with your windows open unless you want to choke, LOL (found out the hard way)

So was that in first gear or do you have enough power to do it in second gear?

Looks like fun by the way.
