Never launched this car hard before so it was a trial/error endeavor, as well as new tires/clutch so everything was basically just wearing in.
I started at 4500 on 1st run. It spun so hard I short shifted into 2nd.
Lowered to 4300 and bogged like crazy.
Raised to 4400 and bogged again.
Raised to 5000 and spun, but less than 1st time, lol. That was the best run.
Was really tempted to make 1 more run but had a bday party to get to, so called it a day.
4800-4900 is probably what she will like most. Might try again when y'all finally commit to a day

Spin not slip?
When I was playing with LC, it was slipping at high rpm. I found my sweet spot to be 4000. I'm sure the road condition would be a factor.

On the 1st run, it was a combination of spin and slip.
The other runs, either spin or bog.
Next field trip we do you can show me how it's dQQne

You sir need to:
1) not hesitate
2) not baby it
3) send it
Contrary to common sense/logic, bogging is much harder on components than spinning.
