Mongo Launch re: high rpm, wheel hop inducing launch, and/or dead hooking on less capable rear set-ups.

Not allways, my friend mounted his side-ways (15) and turned pick-up slightly as per instructions from NOS. He posted pics on corvetteforum.com in n2o section-c5's and explained why/what. Just do a search for chris stewart in that section, for insight.
