That's mine, and unfortunately, my best time yet. Although I've only raced it about 8 times now total.

Do y'all just floor it with your right foot and stomp on the brake with your left foot then let off as soon as it's go time?

i dont floor it, i hold it at a certain RPM right before my wheels start to spin, and then once the tree turns green i left go of the brake and smash the gas, its pretty easy...and then i cycle through my gears i would recommend not going to 4th but u can try it, try going to 4th and not going to 4th and see your time slip and compare let me know i still haven't done this yet...but i did it on accident once and my time was like 14.3 with a friend in the car...so well have to see good luck

hraes, are you really "Queen of the
Street" like your slip says???

There is something funny about your times. Are you shifting at redline? Looks like you are losing traction off the line, but then you have some other things going on.
Maybe like losing time in shifting or shifting too soon.

Must be thinking about val on the way down the track.
