basically have clutch engaged halfway so it slips and doesn't do a burnout

you need to launch an rx7 with 100 hp or 500hp the same way so you don't break stuff and get a good time. it is harder with more power though. i usually just dump the clutch but his car likes to hop actually most T2's do!

Dump at 5K worked the best for me. Only 6psi and bad shocks. I'm at 15 psi, no clutch, and still bad shocks, so I don't know.
