Launching my car FTL

Posting for those that don't hang out on the drag race threads.

Just goes to show that with even traction compound sprayed on the track AWD isnt always easy to launch.LOL

Nice. I'm guessing you came out of the hole with at least 1bar boost ?

And a well prepped track looks wet.

That was Mike my tuner driving the car, I was standing at the start filming it.

Guy beside me was telling his buddy"watch this car go" after the run they both looked at each other and said that guy is going to break something.

I told them it was my car and the one guy said I hope that guy thats driving it gave you his credit card.
