not trying to jack the thread or anything, but what would the best way to launch with an auto be? I know not dropping it into gear obviously, so just ride the brake and rev until it wants to move, then let off+floor it?

you need to learn the fine art of what us street racer's call (slipping the clutch) hold your rpm's steady and let the clutch out just to the point where u feel it wanting to move the car then stop an hold it there wait for the light then when its go time slightly give it more throttle as u are releasing the clutch at the same time u will know when u are catching it right cause the car will just be smooth out of the hole. if u are jerking out of the hole u are loosing momentum u want to feel the ever so pleasant flow of acceleration as u are pulling out of the hole GL>.

Autos require stalling. That is basically holding the brake and the accelerator. Stock stall should be around 2g if not less its not much. It is not wise to constantly do this as it does put more wear and tear in the transmission as it does create heat.

As for manual "slipping the clutch" is not just a "street racers" term. A lot of people use this term in motorsport. Not just street racers.

Ah alright, just making sure there wasnt some better way to do it that i didnt know. I do plan on putting a tranny cooler in the old stock airboxes location, and cut a little venthole in the back of the inner fender, dsm style
