I've seen this guy is 4dr 97ish civic launch near 5k RPM and with minimum wheel spin. He had some donuts but couldn't tell wat kinda tires, he hit vtec right away and for sure it had to be a DOHC VTEC motor, B16/GSR/LSvtec i don't know. Any idea how you can launch so high near vtec and not light 'em up? Maybe this could help my boggin when launched at 3k w/ azenis 205's in a B16 CRX.

 

bump for myself

 

Well it could be a combination of several things...

1. suspension set-up
2. traction bars (jimfab/Z-10)
3. motor mount inserts
4. LSD
5. kind of tires and wheel size
6. tire pressure
5. good driver

very true

 

maybe he is feathering the clutch...

...i lauch at 3.2k on my b18c crx on 205 azenis and get nuthing but wheel hop

 

i ride the cluch real hard and try to get no wheel spin at all at 4000---- maybee just a litte wheel hop in there

 

Maybe he was on slicks...

 

or some bfg cheaters

 

wat do you mean good driver? that's wat i'm asking, wat kinda techniques are out there? and feather the clutch. is that when you do anything but dump and clutch and play w/ it until you get traction?

 

just let her out nice and slo( the clutch )

 

i think hes got an LSD, ive seen a lotta people launch like that n all you hear is the engine screaming n them taking off, NO tire screeching whatsoever.
