1.Rev the engine up for about a minute in neutral but DO NOT DROP it in D. The brake should be depressed for safety.
2. Once you stop revving, Place car in D stomp on the gas with VDC ON the first gear. While in second quickly take VDC OFF and shift into third gear. Make sure you redline the first 4 gears but prevent over-revving.

You don't need all that brake drama. It will slow you down. If you want? You can do a burn out to heat up the tires before following my instructions. But that gas brake shyt will actually slow u down.

That's a lot of steps to do within a few secs, :tiphat:

But you get a good jump off the line with little initial wheel spin and a high torque hit & the same time. it has done pretty good against v8's.

It's really not though. I'm just being descriptive.

There is nothing wrong with you or your car. If you car has "D" gear then you made a mistake :stirthepot:

Much better with VDC off. Hold at 1700 rpm brake and gas. just feather the gas pedal for a few feet and floor it.

That is just about the absolute worst method to launch an AT. Unless you are trying to destroy your transmission :wtf2:

You never ever do this ever ever ever ever!!!!!!
