It's OK. We are HARD on newbs. If you are a novice car guy you're going to get hazed pretty badly. The ones that learn eventually get over it, the ones that don't usually leave.

Newbs... :yum:

on a more serious note, I drag my car every weekend, If you drop launch the car, all you're going to do is spin in the pit, its also one hell of a shock to the tranny. The easiest way to launch the 370 is to hold it around 2500 rpms, let the clutch out halfway until you grip, then floor it. I in no way, condone street racing, save that shyt for the strip.

Strip FTW.

And yes, you do shock the transmission and rear end pretty badly. If you run into any wheel hop you need to be careful because that's cause to snap an axle or otherwise **** **** up. If you're running sticky tires that constant bite-slip-bite-slip-bite is going to leave parts all over the track. :bowrofl:

tach it all the way up and hold until your oil temp is at optimal 260+ then go!

260*F is the VTEC's optimal temperature for serious.

I believe in automatic cars its where you put the car in neutral press on the gas and then drop into drive. I did it during my dumb 16 year old days. OP we're just messing around apology accepted, in my opinion the Z is a great car, don't bring it down by racing Honda's one day something bad will happen and then they'll laugh at you
