Does anybody launch thier turbo cars in 2nd??? I have a severe traction problem in 1st when I launch. I get full boost at about 3300rpm (5psi) and then needle shoots to redline in about a second if not quicker. For now i am driving it off the line punching it shifting to 2nd at like 5000rpm and going flat out from there. this is the best I can do with my setup. Look at my profile for details. The best part is seeing peoples faces when I make up the 2-4 car length head start people get on me from the launch in 3rd like they're standing on the brakes hehe! I straight up smoked some cars from behind bad my first night out with my new kit. It looks really pitiful coming of the line though! I look like I can't drive or something. Also does anyone else get full boost this low? And I would almost ask for some lag in this situation as it feels like a supercharger that can sustain the top end like a turbo. This shit is fast.........I don't know how fast yet though. And I haven't found anyone to beat it yet so i could have an idea of what it's doing for times and such. I want to race a vette next so I can get smoked and then I'll calm down. Also does anyone know what a Carrera 4 has???? I smoked one today and don't have a clue as to what it is. That guy flipped me off! I guess he doesn't like hanging out behind me. Anyways fuck that guy he got smoked and his car probably costs a lot so I can se why he'd be mad be he actually started that fight. he got off the phone to talk to me and was like " You want to see a REAL car go fast?" I said "yes!" and motioned for him to punch it and then I dropped into 3rd at 60mph and showed him my tailights before I even got to 4th gear. I was so suprised and kind of scared I was shaking and had to try to calm down for like 20 minutes after that. Also does anyone have a similar car and if so what are you posting in the 1320???
