Launching My Fd?
I know most people are going to tell me to do a search for whell hop or launch, and i did but it didnt help.
In every respond there are two extremes to the question. Either launch at 3000 or 6000, and slip the clutch or pop it.
Now im running stock tires. Can someone please help me with this problem.

thats not paint....
6 grand? you'll melt the tires off.
I had a perfect launch the other day. Keep in mind I have the non-sequential setup. I reved up to about 3700 rpms and slowly let off the clutch till I was creeping forward. Then I dropped the clutch and gassed it. I had a little wheel spin but it grabbed quickly after that. That was with some worn out 245/45-16 tires. With the stock sequential setup try around 32-3400 rpms

I have a pettit launch kit and some s'o3 tires. If I launch at 3k, I get bad wheel hop. If I launch at 4k I spin. So I mostly launch at 3600 and I get a little bit of both but not too bad.Oh yeah, I do pop the clutch.
