Cheers Patrick :wink:

Tips, hmmm, I don't know, foot down really! lol

Off the line, I was holding the revs at a steady 4.5k rpm, no blipping of the throttle. Now, when the lights change, one would put your foot down and drop the clutch, but its easy to wheelspin too much this way.

IMHO, you want to drop the clutch (keeping the loud pedal constant) then squeeze until the pedal hits the metal, then its just up to quick gear changes and no fear of the rev limiter! :twisted: lol

I like spinning the wheels a bit on the way up to the line. Don't know if it does anygood though :? :twisted:
