If you have an A4, can you get better launches by stalling at 2100? Or is it better to just mash into it when the 3rd yellow goes on?

You'll definately get a better launch if you stall it up. As long as you don't blaze the tires2000 GTP<br />Thrasher CAI, 3.4\" pulley, DHP PCM<br />Member RedLineVSix<br />Best ET-14.02<br />Best Trap-97.15Comment

Maybe with a 3.4 but you try to do that with a M5 3.8 and it just keeps spinnin.Originally posted by Equis:
