I know this sounds like a bogan hoon question. But my friend and I are wondering how you're meant to launch an auto car off the line?
I have an app on my phone which supposedly calculates a whole pile of car related stuff. I was interested in my 0-100 time as that was the only legal thing I could find out, and I wanted to see how far away it was from what is advertised.
As it turns out, my sv6 took about 9seconds to get to 100.
As far as I can see, to get a decent start, I could either have my left foot on the brake and accelerate with my right, then let off the brake to launch? Or, have it in neutral, rev, then dump it into drive?
Rev dump an then wonder why your gearbox is ####ed..
I dare you
All I do is put it in neutral and rev it like BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM BAM then select D for maximum respect

Stock auto commie plant it in D. No need to stall it up or whatever.

Nail the brake, bring the revs up, release and lay into the right pedal gets you this
I wouldn't do it too often if you like your car

You're half right mate. Best way to get an auto to launch is stick it in neutral, build it to about 4000rpm (that's where max torque is) and then quickly select "R" for "race".
ummm proven on track and gtech leave it in drive and just take off dont nail it but slide accelerator pedal down fast but not flat out dint use car in manual mode if stock its slower

When I want to launch an auto I feed a mate prunes then drive off a bridge. You get to launch the auto and he dumps in his pants. My wife thinks I drive like Mister Magoo so I aint the one to give you any advice.
