vids on their way.. not of the later runs, but early on when it was a bit slippy and I was trying to learn the best way to launch it..

In the end i settled for lettign the revs build and sidestepping the clutch at about 8500rpm :O

was going to go up today but couldnt afford some front tyres. somehow dont think it would be a good race agains your skyline. 4x4 wins all the time.

shit the bed, your gearbox/clutch will love that

I found that just over 3.5k rpm and riding the clutch a small amount is the best launch for mine.

its RWD till it needs 4wd.... so you get a lot of slip then it pulls itself into shape. Works very differently on corners though.

570bhp on worn R888's

I found that the 3 scoobys iv have, the best way to launch them was high revs and hard but there are draw back lol: bit of an understatement
