Help with Roll Racing!

I’ll be doing some rolls in Mexico. I have only roll raced a couple of cars with my current set up. Long story short, 200 mile Rally round trip.

For reference:
Ported SC
Cam
Meth
Headers
103 TB
Big Gulp
9.17 and 2.3 pulleys

Car makes over 750whp/wtq.
Tires will be 325/30/20.
Rolls will be 50 or 60mph starting.


Any etiquette I should know?
What tire pressures?
What settings? (Traction control on or off, street, track, touring).


Most of the cars are in the 600whp range but a few are 800-900hp.

Just some fun with friends. Lol!

Any advice is appreciated.

I haven’t had my A10 for a couple years, but I would start in manual mode in the best gear, be cruising at the start speed, and as soon as the race starts, bump the stick back into auto mode. Then win!

Tune Manual mode so you don't have to worry moving it back to drive and it will still shift. Game changer for roll racing.

With only 750 hp, the Mexico racers here wouldn't let you join them. I think they start at 1000hp

No Nannies on for me..

What RPM would you start from? ... sometimes I start in the 5500 rpm range but, I have to shift so soon I get a huge jump and sometimes I start lower range little sluggish and pull ahead right at time of shifting. I haven't had the courage to no lift shift yet from fear of spinning out bit im pushing a few hundred more than you.

Leave it in Drive but use paddles to get in right gear (50mph should be 4th) and it will shift

Can you elaborate on this? What do you mean by Tune manual mode?

If you do that though, wouldn't you lose the true manual mode?
