I have. Just dont lauch it hard or you will be spinning up the wheels badly. I launch from around 2krpm and shift up in first at around 5500-6krpm and then stretch all the gears until the finish.
Hold the handbrake on the line with the car ready to lauch and just let the handbrake go after the last amber light comes on :happy2:

Cheers Luca  :happy2:

Been meaning to have a practice but haven't and won't get the chance so was wondering what rpm was best for a good launch (as im up against grandad in his auto  :grin:).
