i have a 350 engine, 700r4 trans and stock rearend. whats the best and easiest way to launch? i usually launch in 2nd gear, but wanna get off the line or punch faster... any suggestions?

 

engage the torque converter a little by giving it some gas then hold the car with your brake. then just put it to the floor and have fun.

are u running some sort of Drag Radial or slick?

 

no i got normal street tires. i gotta posi rearend and d.o.t drag tires im gna run. do i engaege the nos after i smash it to the floor on take off?

 

if your running anything more than 100 shot you wont hook off the line w/o slicks on N2O you can try but i doubt u will. are u running a window switch so the nos only turns on at full throttle?

i wouldnt hit the nos till 2nd gear just so u have time to react to the nos and will most likely hook.

watch ur rpms when hitting the nos it will go up FAST ecspecially if u spin.

 

im running a activation switch for full throttle. ya i kno the rpms sky rocket exscpecially in 3rd gear. what rpm levels too high to keep pushin the nitrous?

 

......

 

sorry. All depends on how your valve train is set up. anything under 5500 is good on stock valve train. Anything higher and your asking for problems. i would start out with lower shot of nos and work your way up. are you running carb/FI dry/wet?

 

im running carb setup. i dunno if im hitting the button to late or what. need more practice

 

Try launching in first gear. I have no knowledge of nitrous so I can't help you out there.

 

Unless he's got a manual vb, it is still launching in 1st gear no matter what position the shifter is in.

Every set-up is different. Try leaving just off idle and "flashing" the converter, and try leaving on the brakes against the converter. W/o some serious suspension and/or some good tires, you will have a tough time getting it to hook on the n2o in low gear.

 

wheels up

 

id love to get the wheels up
