Here is a stupid question (not to me though!).

How are you guy's building boost on your launches? I would assume by standing on the break and throtle at the same time? I'm running a manual and have experimented with using the e-break a little, but it makes me muy' nervous doing so (I've broken way too many axles four-wheeling).

So how are you guy's building boost with a six-speed?

Ok, that's what I was hoping you were reffering to but I wasn't totally sure.

Yes, that's how to build boost... but as you said, it's a lil more tricky when you drive a standard. The best way to do it then is to buy a set of line locks. A lot of tracks won't allow you to heel/toe during a burnout, so this is where the line locks come into play. Then it also allows you to stage and build up boost and not have to worry about your staging.
