Posted 21/11/16 04:42 AM Share Posted 21/11/16 04:42 AM I've note looked into them but do stall converter's make a difference when first taking off with lack of traction?

Expand yeah I never mess around in certain industrial areas. sucks too as it's literally factory units on both sides of the road yet they are hellbent about people ripping skids there. that being said the cops also rent units in industrial areas I know this for a fact and they park all of their cars inside and run operations targeting hoons to people committing computer crimes. smart coppers are smart.

That's the kind of feedback needed since you've had a taste of all the power levels. I'm currently sitting around that second stage. Mid 400s does seem to be the place to be.

I'm all for a nice quick accelerating car but not at the expense of new tyres every three months or paying for breakages every so often.

skidxr6t skids Donating Members 2,754 Member For: 12y 4m 14d Gender: Not Telling Posted 21/11/16 06:35 AM Share Posted 21/11/16 06:35 AM I reckon the 360kw I currently have is too much. I got chopped the other day by another lightning strike car on a cruise but he mashed it and I was to the kickdown point.....I obviously need to learn how to launch it (didn't stall it up at all) but I didn't want to do a skid and/or risk having an accident while side by side to another car. I dont know if this is the tune but if I roll the throttle on really slowly it's kinda mediocre but if I stab it to the floor really quickly the car either gives me slingshot or wheelspin. I could see a high powered car being just fine if it is tuned this way so a slow application of the throttle won't be the same as pushing it fast to the same spot.

Might need to get it looked at and upgraded if required.
