Weird problem when brake stalling....i think...

06-27-2003, 03:17 AM

Ok...havent tried this at the track yet and im definatly going this weekend. Tonight coming home from work, i thought id work on my launches a little. When i stall my car anywhere from 1800 to 2300 and take-off, I get no wheelspin. But, when I take off from a dead idle, I get a good bit of wheelspin and seem to pick up quicker. Any reason as to why this might be? I figured that by stalling your car, your just taking off closer to where your powers at...around 2800-4500 it seems in my car. Im just really confused by this. More wheel spin from a dead idle than by stalling.....that dosent seem right. Help would be greatly appreciated!

I have a high-stall converter and that happens. I get more spin when I step on it from idle than when I stall from 2500. You will get a better launch when you stall it though.
