what's the best way to launch a stock TR?
I've been trying this a bit, but I was just wondering what is the fastest way to launch a TR from the line. Obviously just flooring it from a start won't do it, and I wouldn't do that anyway....any tips?

Build a small amount of boost by power braking. Floor the gas and then release the brake. Reduce the "small amount of boost" until the car hooks.
NEVER try to pedal the car at 1/2 throttle. Leave with enough boost that it won't spin BUT you can leave your foot planted to the floor. Pedaling the car screws up spool and fueling. If it starts to spin let off and get back in. Don't drive it like a 5.0 (part throttle until the clutch is out/wheel spin has stopped, THEN floor it) It is not the fast way with a TR.
