My track results
Not the same. 2 years ago I fought trying to get the car to leave on the brake, wasn't happening for ****. footbrake even the goodyear radials I was trying worked good, transbrake with anymroe then 3800 rpm they went up in smoke. I had the best results leaving at about 1200 rpm.
Guys do get it to work though, just a matter of playing. If you're already running too fast for the index on a full out run you're just gonna have to play the game more on the big end if ya get faster.

Chances of just going to the brake and having the car work the same, I doubt it. It's like going to a stick car suspension setup almost with the way it hits compared to a footbrake launch.

I'm not worried about launching on the t brake right now since the foot brake is netting me consistent 1.3s. I would like to get it to work so that I can get a better reaction time. I'm sure I can get the tires to work, just need more seat time in the car. I did one launch with it at 4000 rpms without a 2 step and it spun. I've been launching the car at 20psi, so I am sure with lower tire pressue and finding the right launch rpm, the tires will work.
