vixen Member 13 Member For: 20y 13d Posted 09/03/05 12:53 AM Share Posted 09/03/05 12:53 AM Hi fellas,I have a SSS XR6T and just want to know your tips in getting the optimum take off from the lights. I usually just rev to around 2 grand with foot on brake and then just plant it with the transmission in Perf. Any tips?, haven't lost any so far...Vixen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to fit a trans cooler too.Dazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
