I been trying to ge the right RPM to launch on my S2000. What RPMs do you guys launch at???

 

around 6k,depends on traction conditions

 

7500 and ran a 13.7 but depends on ur tires..

 

8K feathered out does it for me!

but go out there and see what works best for how u drive!

 

ap1 i run at 5500 to 6000

 

i spin to much at 7500+ id say go about 6k. But like everyone says pending tires/ur cars power. later!

 

the closer to 9 the better

 

negative, too much and you will have to much wheelspin.

 

^ I won't even start

 

What don't you want to start?.....I don't get it who launches at red line, kinda stupid...

 

you should also ask if AP1 or AP2......please post guys

oh yeah almost forgot...AP2, around 5k for track starts....little spin then hold on

 

I drive an AP1 and am speaking about AP1's. There is a thread on S2KI.com that explains why a higher rpm is better, I suggest you go and read that since I am not in the mood to explain everything to you here.

<---is teh lazY yo

 

11k

 

^ for sure...

6-62000 with a little feather and im out on you like a cheating girlfriend.

 

I have the 2-step set @ 4200 RPMs and the anti lag @ 4000rpms. Car still spins like hell but I just let off of the gas. As soon as it hooks Im back on the gas all the was and its good to go.

oh ya, I have a turbo

 

ap1 is around 6000, as said before.

it has been stated you will need a little bit of wheel spin. the differentials in the S2000 isnt the strongest thing (dont be scared to launch it though, it will hold up) when you spin it takes some of the force in the differential and puts it on the ground and helps absorb the shock.

*read somewhere on here i belive, maybe s2ki.

 

hey AP1, i would like to see what happens when you dump the clutch close to 9k

Good, try it and let me know


TOOL

 

some do drop at 9, it works fine. -_-

I myself don't do it, but I do usually go from around 6500-7000. I am speaking on behalf of other drivers viewpoints, not my own.

There's your mistake.

 

Seen it in person, rode in the same car, have the experience as an observer.

 

That would be YOUR viewpoint then?

Personally, I launch at 5-5.5k on an AP2 with no clutch delay, a chirp and I'm out.

It takes some more finesse with the feathering, but the basic concept is the same.

My viewpoint is that it works well anywhere over 6 on an AP1, perhaps not necessarily at 9, but it can be done. It never hurts to know.

<FONT COLOR="purple"> i think i know a thing or two about feathering...... but anything more then 6-6500 is unnesscessary in a stock-lightly modded AP... </FONT>
