Its much quicker than the BA/BFs off the line though...

PHANTMXR6 It's not a MKI! Member 1,742 Member For: 16y 11m 18d Gender: Male Location: Earth Posted 15/07/08 07:52 AM Share Posted 15/07/08 07:52 AM I've tried it twice so far.First time I pretty much just dumped the clutch. It bogged, surged forward a bit them hammered away. Bit like being chewed and then spat out. Not very successful.The second time I rode the clutch a bit till I got going. I think I rode it for too long though because there was this strange smell that all of a sudden appeared Clutch is still intact and good but need some more practice before I reckon I'll see the full effect of it.It's my first manual car in 12 years and I'm loving it. Really good transmission too. Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/47646-fg-lauch-control/#findComment-705994 Share on other sites More sharing options...
