Rick taught me how to launch on the last event and that is the funnest part for me (other than staging ). The car has power from a dig and there is such an awesome rush of power if I time it just right and get good grip. Also, I was pumped and had a few runs in when I got him after all that had gone on so I knew i wasn't gonna red light, either.

Ed has a fast car. I was killing him on the launch only because i had DRs and he was running 19" street tires. Later, when we swapped, he dropped 0.3 seconds consistently in the 1/4 and was WALKING me on the launches. I drove his car and again, that rush is just so awesome.
