Launching with McLeod Twin DIsk How should I launch with my mods listed? I've read many post about slipping the clutch, but I've also heard your supposed to dump the McLeod Twin Disk clutch.
BTW, how high should I rev it with these mods and stock weight of 3685?

Gary Z - Thanks.
My main concern is whether to dump the clutch or slip it out. I thought I read somwhere that you shouldn't slip the McLeod Twin Disk.
Can anyone confirm this?

Low sixty times are achieved with a combination of wheelspin and a slipping clutch. This remains true whether or not the clutch is deliberately slipped. Pro-Stock cars with sixty times below one second use multi-disc clutches that are designed to provide controlled slip. You may or may not need to deliberately slip your clutch in order to launch well – only experimentation will answer your question.
