one of my points were, if they clean the track of all of this, theres a reason they don't want it there.either way, its not me attempting it, nore will i ever have the urge to try it, so make up your own mind, try it out if you feel up to it, and make your own decision.

I'm not talking about using this at the track or even at a serious race on the streets. I was just posting this up as a "hey, what if?" thing to see where it went.

this thread is really facinating!
for launching autos, changing the convertor will help, changing the final gear ratio will help,tire size and traction will help,small shot nitrous off the line will help,putting your foot on the brake(left foot) while you stall the car will help.if the car begins moving pull up the hand lever, go floor board as you drop the hand lever, and take your foot off the gas.
HYBRID:resulting from the combination of two or more mechanically dissimilar origins! "...... code":every man is a shadow,let him be treated as such,until proven otherwise by a show of character or code!

The auto Celica tranny is stronger than people realize: https://celicahobby.com/ubbthreads/thread.f_1870204232_0_collapsed_5__1.htmlGranted, it's only one case, and since the tranny was later swapped out so we don't know the long term effects of what he did, but after more than 30 n-drops you figure that's gotta count for something.
