i still suck at launching so i dont know... launch at about 4-5k and get use to feathering the throttle off the line. its gonns take practice.

4400. Any higher would spin any lower would wheel hop or bog

ding ding ding.....i think your right. When ever i woulnd launcg higher than that it would spin, any lower and it would bog...WTF.


How come BBKA launches at like redline?

Different car but I stage at 5000-5500 and feathered the clutch out a bit, once it hooks let it go...

With Honda's I've tried diferent launches. You have an NA B18 right? I would probably keep it between 4500-5500, not higher or lower, either bog or spins too much...

Try that a few times, different rpm's then compare your time slips and find out which one was better.
