What I'm talking about is the button that changes from Sport1, Sport2, and Comfort. This does not change any gears.
After you do your burnout, you should hit the raise button(let the car fully raise). This helps with wieght transfer. In Sport2 the car is lower and and all the tq from the launch is on the inner tire. You'll spin.

You should have looked up my thread on launching. But if you've seen any of my pics with other members, then you can see that i always go against the grain. Or you can look up how many AMGs have launch a 1.4x 60ft. I know I'm on that very short list, anong with Blackbenz.

And believe me, I know those quotes. I did the same thing when I first got my 55. I asked everything. Got alot of help to. But in the end, every car and driver is different. Its all in what ever works for you.

BTW amgrocket's 1.6 is at MIR. Or MIRacle track.

I dont think I tried going off idle though to compare. My main prob was getting my car to do a good burn out and get the tires sticky. Well if others are getting such good 60s on street tires I guess it wasnt my main prob then, just one of them I would love to see how she does with good traction.
