yeah the only problem with this is using a motorway,have you tried stoppin on a motorway theres always at least a car or a wagon coming along so you would have to do a rolling start,which is only good if you have good midrange and topend like v6's etc,the only way to do it really is to find a nice straight A road(by pass) at about 1.30 am sunday morning no traffic at all(hardly),and then do it some where like that,not that i agree with street racing or ewt tho

The thing is - the person who does 'beep beep beep' is gonna have the advantage... coz he knows when they're gonna start and hence may Floor it before the other guy realises or B be set up better (car in power)...

the person listening for Beep beep beep will always have a delay on hearing it...

the only way to do it is to have 3 cars, the 3rd car doesn't race but does the 3 beeps!
