2g gs launch
 
I was wondering where would a 2g gs launch point be at. I've tried 4500rpm and the tires peels all the 1st and 2nd until hitting 3rd gear. I want to know a launching point where I can just take off at the right rpm setting. (All Stock) Thanks

you could just go out and try different rpms. i would say closer to maybe 3500 or 3400

Nobody can tell you the optimum RPM. It is a combination of RPM and clutch slippage. Depending on what you want to throw the force into. You raise the RPM and dump the clutch, you put all the stress on the drivetrain, and a little on the clutch. You decide yo uwant to raise the RPMs and slip the clutch, you burn the clutch, but save the drivetrain.

May I suggest some form of advanced driving course?

ya dumping the clutch isnt the best but you need to find the best combo on your own. just dont break anything.

I've tried launching at 4500rpm and the tires burn all the way through 1st and 2nd gear. I'll have to try 4000 to 4200 rpma and see what happen.

Try getting better tires.

all dumping the clutch will do is spin ur tires... since you only have fwd and im assuming stock tires then slipping the clutch out a bit is ur best bet... but im not sure why you'd need to launch ur gs...

I am actually running on a set of fuzion zri tires. I just want to have an idea or where to set my rpm to be launching without burning or pealing through gears.

lower obviously if your spinning the tires into 3rd

Try like 1700 to 2000 rpms hold it there slip the clutch and floor the pedal.

Still spinning? lower the launch or let the clutch out slower.

Bogging out? Up the revs a touch

I've run my best times launching from below 2k
