I just got a 95 GSR and I wondering how you launch your car.. Anyways, anyone who can help me I will appreciate it. Thanks again</TD></TR></TABLE>

Geezuz, I'll do the right thing and help the noob. I'll assume that your car is either stock or close to it and it's on street tires. Based on that assumption here's my method: dry rev it to around 3800 to 4200rpm, if it's a stock clutch slip it relatively quickly and modulate the throttle until you feel the car hooking then give it WOT. A decent 60' ft. for a novice driver should be a 2.2 so keep trying until you at least get to that. A 2.1 is quite good and a 2.0 is very good on regular street tires. Practice makes perfect. Good luck.

If your "stock" GSR Integra went 14's, you don't need advice.

I launched mine at 3500 and i cut a 1.9 60ft with those crap *** michelins, exhaust, and a drop. The best time i hit was a 14.61 at 96mph. Thats the most that car was capable of i think with that setup...gl

put a 100 shot in it (WET), heat up your tires and lower your tire pressure to 15 lbs launch in reverse at 9 grand you should be good !!
