launching a 6spd

[sevenpointthree]

just got back from the track and i wasn't happy with the results i spun 1st through 3rd to much but i was in 2wd next time im gonna launch in 4hi but can you guys give me some tips on what to do with the rpm's dump or roll the clutch i was having a 3.2sec=60ft still pulling off a 16.43 i need to get my 60ft down

[MrJohnWayne]

last time I was at the track I was launching 4wd in 2nd gear at about 2500 rpm's I was rolling the clutch. I think my best 60 foot was 2.9 though...

try doing it with a 2wd 6 speed ..lol

I did it one weekend my 60 ft was bad I spun right through the gears and I didnt have my detroit so it was a one wheel wonder.. i wanna try it again now that I have 2 wheels grabbing

as john said ya gotta get it around 23-2500 and roll the clutch out.. its not easy

your not doing bad @ all. I can spin cuz my axle wrap is too bad but im running about a 19 second quarter and i gots no clue how slow my 60' is

[1badpsd]

single or dual disc? if its a single disc i would just do 4x4 and rev to 2500 or so and role off the clutch, don't dump it thats how you brank sh!t

[rankroddin250]

how exactly do you "roll" the clutch?

[MrJohnWayne]

roll = slip...

I WILL SIT THERE AT THE STAGING BEAMS REV TRUCK TO ABOUT 2200-2500 AND WHEN THE LAST YELLOW LIGHT ON THE BOTTOM GOES OUT I DUMP THE CLUTCH.... MADE SOME PRETTY GOOD TREES ON IT BUT IF YOU DECIDE TO DO THE CLUTCH DUMP THING IN 4X4 HOLD YOUR HEAD TO THE HEADREST BECUASE I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO SNAP MY NECK WHEN IT JUMPED OUT OF THE HOLE

rev the truck up and then let the clutch out like a normal person instead of dumping it... each time you do this its about the same amount of wear as 20,000 normal driving miles on your clutch.
