DSC OFF!!!!! hold it for 5 sec untill you see the "yellow car thing" in middle...

LAUNCH YO CAR ANYWHERE FROM 5.5-7.5 (personally i like the 7k launch)

I hit 64 in second gear (but i also hear a little "beep"... wonder why lol)

but my car is not stock, if i can recall 59-60 was a redline in 2nd gear

i can hit 64 in 2nd all day long, im bone stock

the 5-60 depends on how you start. when i engage in friendly 5-60 speed tests against another car ON A TRACK i roll from 5 and hold the revs at 6 and feather the clutch, just like launching from a dig.

Epitrochoid, How many seconds does the the feathering procedure take until its fully engaged? What kind of times are you getting?

just a tad shorter than it would take you doing a launch from a stop. it's a bit awkward to get used to, and you have to watch for wheelspin...i have yet to time it though, but it's right under what the 0-60 is so I'd guess about 5 seconds

Quarter is boring to be honest for you guys who've never been to the track before. It's fun just to see what you can pull off. But the true challenge of skill is the circuit track.

Still trying to decide what I think... That grill was taken from the B11S concept which is another car I'm still not sure about, regardless I'll always love the bugeyes! :D
