What is your normal launch RPMs?
When I'm at a stop light and start to go, I notice most people pass me... :( Are most people driving around 3-4k RPM ?
My exhaust is pretty loud so I normally don't go above 2 or 2.5k RPM when I'm just driving. So I'm curious what do you guys normal drive at? |

Track > 1/4 Mile

Well before I was supercharged I would be around 3.5-4k after a stop light. Post supercharger I keep it easy as I don't want my MPG to rape me from stop light to stop light, doing a lot of city driving now...
Now I probably hit 3k maybe, usually 2.5-3k and yes it seems like a slow acceleration...

3k for good launch. I don't have the skill to launch much higher yet. Too much tire spin higher than 3K, but I'm still learning

Most are driving automatics and i'm sure you're going for a smooth shift in a casual launch.
