Re: Capitol Raceway result
Hold your revs around 4500 RPM and slip the clutch until you hit full traction then slam it. You should be able to launch off while v-tec is engaged.

Re: Capitol Raceway result
Capitol is the worst track I have ever been to preparation wise. Wait till you go to MIR you will be scared to break something it hooks so good.

Re: Capitol Raceway result
again, what other people have said. Capital isn't called crapital for no reason. Just practise launching on the street you'll figure it out.

Re: Capitol Raceway result
I'll bring it to MIR next time after tuning. I did slip the clutch at 5RMP but the tires still spinning after WOT.... I need to play with this new toy for awhile before getting better
