Cool

Which is the quickest, mechanically friendly way to launch a wrx?
Clutch dump at red line seems to work although the drive train does not seem to like it...

I guess that 14-15 second quarter mile runs are going to require frequent clutch changes then .... anyone experienced an exploding driveshaft on a full bore launch??

Not yet (touch wood). If you're serious with getting a good 1/4 mile time, get yourself a nice paddle clutch and a quaife gearbox..
