im going to the strip for the very first time. any tips from the vets would be appreciated

how i plan to launch is by revving to 4000-4500 and find out where the clutch grab point is and press a little bit more and feather the clutch and gas to about 75% and when i "feel" the tires are grabbing, go full throttle. hopefully result in minimal wheel spin and no broken axles on street tires

preloading doesnt really appeal to me since it kills the clutch.

search for pre-load. or pre load or preload. and go from there. if you are on radials, you will have to feather it out though, you probably wont hook.

 

anybody else?

 

what kinda power you workin with?

 

yeah preloading is hard on the clutch, but would you like to have fun a feww weekends or put axles in all the time?

like said above, how much power, what kind of wheels/tires, and suspension setup?

it is either preload or feather. if you hit the box and dump, you will break parts.
