I know this might be i dumb question but how do you really figure out whats a good launch point?

 

search would be a good start... but the best idea would be togo to the track, and practice, try diffrent stuff... every car/track/driver ect is diffrent...

and without knowing your setup its hard to even guess... do a search though... youll find lotsof threads about that stuff...

Get to the track. Figure out how to work the clutch (depending on power and tires and conditions) to go the quickest. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE!!! Good luck.

 

depending on the tires/slicks, whp and track prep it could be anywhere between 3K and 8K.
