You can just get it rolling and let the clutch all the way out and drive away, almost like a stock car. A short system is race car only.

mine seems like it changes mixtures with engine/intake temp pretty drastically, like the jetting is really close when the engine is cold, but when its warmed up, its like plug fouling rich. the way mine is, the header studs are so close to the intake, that there isn't room for header wrap on the intake. which i think is my next task



but yes you can just let the clutch out in 2nd and pull away like stock, its such a weird blend of mayhem, and docile...
