what rpm should i launch to make a better take off when racing...

 

there are so many variables that can affect a launch. Launching is a beautiful thing when you have a good understanding of how your car works. Depending on tire/rim choice, suspension, drag surface, car weight... There are too many variable too really have a dedicated rpm for launching. So, just play with your car more and answer your own question.

 

I launch anywhere from 4,000 rpms to the rev limit (7300 rpms). It just depends if I am on the street or track and running my drag radials or slicks.

Dude... go out and practice. If your car is bogging off the line your not revving it high enough. If your car is just spinning the tires off the line your revving it too high.

my style.............

7500-7800 rpm, 75-100 shot that hits at launch, on 20x8x14 slicks at 12 psi.

That was 2-3 years ago

what 2-3 yrs ago....awww man u got to be kidding me rite....

 

season before last, I went with bigger injectors, blew thru the clutch in 4th gear, 13.40 @ 103 mph. No money for a new clutch.

last season, found a killer clutch, CM stage 4 with 8 lb flywheel. Flywheel TOO light and tried using 22x8x13 MT's on lensos, car slowed to 13.40 @ 101 mph.

Lacks of funds, still going fast on nothing.
