How to launch/drag a C4!
Hey again guys,
As the topic says, how do you guys launch (and destroy) your cars when a M3 comes up to you at the redlight and revs at you
Brutally like revving to 5-6K rpms and bam, release clutch? Or any other way?
Never launched and want to know so I don't make a fool out of myself
Thanks in advance!

reving it too high at 5-6k is gonna cook the clutch to the point where 2nd and 3rd will be slipping. 2-3k is fine. just needs a little practice here and there. too many launchs back to back will also cook your clutch.

Just curious but, why would you care if a BMW wants to street race? You own a Porsche, you dont have to prove a thing. Street racing kills innocent people. With all your questions about a simple launch, you would be doing Porsche an injustice by roasting your clutch off the line or even worse, misjudging that lane change or corner, putting yourself and others in danger. I've seen it done and burried a friend the very next day.
Just drive your car respectively and live to drive another day. Whats the matter, all the head turning you get isn't enough?

i've done it once. revved up to about 2500 rpms then let the clutch out a little quicker than normal while giving it more gas. spun the tires and cooked that 280Z ....but this was in a 996 C2

I just can't launch my car at all. I did the Gtech thing after my SC install and had terrible 30 and 60 ft times. With AWD and those big tires the Pcar is just impossible to drag race. Just ease out the clutch then hammer it. I have not even tried a hard launch since the LWFW and Stage II clutch install. Sorry, Will

I do it all the time. With Mich PS2, the car hops and jumps off the line like a bat out of hell. I only have 10k on the car so I can't vow for clutch life. But they are still fine so far. 3500 rpm with quick let out while increasing throttle. I tried side steping but it doesn't feel very good. Don't forget to turn off PSM.
