brake torque
Ok so Im trying to launch with an automatic. They said I should hold the brake down and rev it to 4000 and let go of the brake. I tried doing this but the brake cant seem to hold the car back?!!
so basically theres no way to launch an automatic?? =( |

Basically, no. Although, if it's going to work, you should only rev for a second. Sounds like either your brakes suck major lluevos, or you're holding the gas and brake for too long. The whole process should only take a second.... -Ducky
