    If you watch the vid....you will see that mooch is performing the TC flash method.

    He is just not sitting there and powerbraking the trans to death. He is getting a flash point to the TC and some pre spool to the turbos...you can hear it. He just likes to do it in 3 steps. on off on off....kinda like his women.

    So the two ships method or duck foot is the same as Pat's 1,2,3,4,5 method is the same a mooch's three step get yer ass out of my fucking way method.

    Your mileage may vary.

    Too funny

    Left foot firmly on the brake.

    gently rev to 1000, then 2000, then on the third or fourth rev at 3000ish plant your right foot and lift off on the brake- timing is every thing- especially at the lights!

    0-60 3.6 seconds or less.....

    Was mine only 5 steps? I could have sworn there were at least 7 I must have omitted something. Did I include the step where you reach over and open and close the glove box while spinning the navigation knob? It would be nice to keep duck-foot-rat in the center console just to help engage the launch sequence when needed. Somebody pulls up next to you at a red light and gives you the look...... To which you respond, "hold on, I have to get duck-foot-rat to activate launch control".

    eeehhh well as the stop light king here i am sure i concur on the methods described, i do MaxRS6 version with a little Mooch. In S, (i leave ASR on as often i just forget when the opportunity rolls up next to me and i don't want to look tooooooo obvious...besides if the throttle application is right it makes no difference) I brake, then tap the revs a little as mooch says then hold to 2K and roll off the brake and into the throttle easy and all the way in the throttle once rolling to skip any wheel spin. G37s don't stand a chance. Or most things. Ummmm not sure how to address the life of the tranny, got 45K out of the last one, first two were still born.

    $100 say's the hairy guy ate Duck-foot-rat. Big mistake, only Duck-foot-rat knew the real lunch control sequence.

    There is a software modification that allows a "proper" stalling up of our car but as stated it isnt kind to the transmission.

    Having put the disclaimer aside I have this software on my car and build 1.0bar on the line, the ECU shut's the throttle to prevent "abuse" you will also notice the ECU does this when driving with the accelerator pressed and you tap the brakes.

    After flash.

    Clearly no powerbraking is needed.

    Roll on throttle and the car just about climbs out of its shell.

    So that slight "huff" or hesitation is gone off the initial launch? Or maybe that is just specific to my car.

    Depends on whether you're going down hill or not.
