DON'T BREAK TRACTION! When your boost gauge is about 5psi release the brake and stomp on the accelerater. This makes you leave the line with boost and makes the turbo kick in quicker and reduces the lag. Making your take off alot quicker 60ft is the first 60ft from the start line!!!! So 1.8 seconds to get to 60feet!!!!!! 1.8 and under is good anything over will affect your total time alot....

I started at about 2100rpm and went to about 2400rpm to much and you will just wheel spin. Good luck and enjoy your self be warned it gets bloody addictive and being an fg your turbo is smaller then the ba bf ones so your actually get power quicker..... So your 60ft time should be low...
