Major difference between the turbocharged cars drag racing with different transmission...
Automatic : Develops boost even stopped. Manual : Does not develop boost when stopped. You're thinking launching with even 5psi will be faster than launching from vacuum. But in road courses and such, where you actually have to turn, I agree with Mr. E. I'll change my own gears. |

QUOTE(Newbie @ Jul 19, 2005 - 2:43 AM) Manual : Does not develop boost when stopped. What's stopping me covering the brakes, and winding the car up against them in 1st gear? Rally cars used to launch off the handbrake for this reason. -------------------- JDM ST205
