Default Drag Radial Users

how are most of u doing ur burnout? i've seen a guy roll thru the water, ebrake and do a second gear burnout and put down 1.9 60 fts. would there be any diff burning out in first as opposed to second? never had enough time to get the hang of launching on these BFGs

If you roll through the water a little bit it will give you less resistance when you do a burnout in 2nd gear. The quicker they spin the hotter they get.

yea, i figured that, but then i thought maybe i could spin them more and faster in first. of course second is capable of more revolutions per second, but you'd have to hold it for awhile to reach that point where it spins more. dry burnout should be in 1st then right? i'm not sure if my torqueless car can handle second dry
