Also don't listen to anyone who says leave on 2nd yellow or crap like that. Test n tune is all about ET, you can sit on the line for 10 seconds and get the same ET, timer doesn't start until car starts to move.

Good to know, I don't have to rush the launch.
I don't want to use Launch control, I don't trust it. So I'll be brake torque launching manually. Which is how I practiced my 0-60 runs.
I kind of figured out what a good launch is on my car, the problem is pedal consistency to do it.
If my car shifts before 60mph then I had a bad launch. If it shifts at or around 60mph then I had a good launch. The rest is me trying to figure out the pedal.
My ideal launch is getting from 0-40mph as fast as possible without spinning the tires, then I know I can floor it after that without breaking loose, even more so when its 85 degrees out on cold tires.
