So when he is launching, he is launching at his redline then? Must have to shift right away into 2nd, like right quick... I am just trying to figure how you can launch at your redline, or do your rpms drop when the clutch is dumped, they must. I have never owned or seen a hi reving hi powered rotary b4...not sure how they work.

Well if thats directed at me, no worries, I can see the little red lines on my tac, and I know that I didn't build my engine. I am not that good at math, but I can figure some stuff out.

i cant launch too high
rear shocks are dead... no power to ground
wheels just spin freely
can be quite fun
but very expensive on rubber
cheaper in the wet

10500 wasnt my redline, it was the rev limit The only reason I launched at those RPMs was to stop the car bogging off the line. I shifted at arount 8500rpm usually as the car made no more power above that anyway

On quite a few occasions I've missed 3rd and and the tach "tached out" actaully staying at the limit of needle for a moment.
engine has 166k on it and still runs strong.
ran a best time of 9.76 in the eighth. on shitty 205-60's.
it would hang with stock 89-93 stang until about 80.
maybe i just have good luck.
