whats the best way you guys have found to launch the TC? I hooked up a G-tech meter but could not get a good run because I smoke my tires all the way through 1st and well into 2nd, even launching low rpms and flooring it still gets me wheelspin, the best 0-60 time I could get was like 8.1, I KNOW its alot faster than that!

 

you need to get some better tires

 

feather the gas, you don't need to go full throtal

 

Exactly.

 

ah-huh easy dude!

 

ive ripped people by just chirpin till the rpms are over 2500...make sure not to completely spin or else you wont be accelerating fast enough...then let the tires grip and take off...minor wheel hop isnt that bad...and i gotta chirp 2nd...keep in mind this car is stock cept for the strut bar...so i dont have the power or suspension or tires to really launch this pup...either way rip em...scions will take a good number of cars out there...specially since we 2005s and we racing 97s and such...

 

just did another run, hit 7.7, the 1/8th in 10.2 and my 60' time was 2.35, I understand that the meteres arent super accurate but I didnt think that was super bad, BTW I wasnt power shifting or even speed shifting for the most part, I think that there is still about 3/10ths or so of improvement left, I actually bogged the last run where I got the 7.7, I need to find the happy median.

 

i have found that feathering it at 2k works best a little bit of spin but i rip most people off the line
