I went street racing with a friend for the first time the other night and the only decent race they had was a mustang that ran 11.9 vs an integra. The cops cleaning us up twice kept the races down.

I was wondering why they have roll starts.

 

For ******* who either dont know how to launch or who's car doesn't have enough torque to get out of it's own way from a stop.

 

a.k.a. those who don't know how to launch


even with lack of low end if you launch it right you should do ok......

just takes more work

 

one word 1 word TRACTION otherwise its like this :nono: :nono: :hail:

 

It's for non-drivers...you know, like most Supra owners

 

hey now the only way my daily driver does ok is from a roll.....lol Dont make fun but its just a beater to and from work/school....its a neon highline...lol purely stock.....and i have taken out a 5.0 tbird from a 35 roll.....not bad for a girl car....but yeah most of the time its cuz people cant launch right.

 

Well, for a car that runs 11.9, I'd say thats pretty good. The roll start was at 5 mph.
