7 Second Hold For Competition Mode???? - Page 2 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

*mlee* · 07-02-2009, 03:55 PM

I tried BOTH ways at the track... and got identical times. HOWEVER... I did have 2 runs with ALL OFF (hold for 7 sec) and once my tires broke loose at the line and another time it broke loose from 1st to 2nd.

A lot of folks are saying turn everything off (which is fine). My money is on tap twice (like the book says) to Comp Mode, which is Stability off and TC on. This way I am guaranteed to leave the line without spinning the tires.

Again when I did leave the line clean with everything off I ran the exact same times... and I repeated it a few times too.
Hope this helps...

Mine doesn't get squirlly in all off mode. I can punch the gas to the floor and I get minimal wheel spin. No in my Z28 I punch the gas at a stop and the car will do donuts all day long. My car seems very cushy off the line, no matter what mode I'm in. My best launch is a 2.17 60' time which could be better but it isn't awful.

What were your 60' times?

My best run to date. 7 sec hold. IF this thing is accurate. Couldn't do the full quarter.

Dynolicious. Could have had a less queer sounding name.

OK... Dumb question guys (and gals if your reading lol) :

I have been watching the vids of everyone doing the burn outs. One I saw, had the car spinning it's tires in place for five seconds or so... WITHOUT moving forward at all, EVEN when the back end was moving side to side in the smoke!! Why does it seem that the front brakes are LOCKED??? Is that a timed option in comp mode?

Give me some info here! lol

All in the brake pedal....

After you get em spinning only a light brake will keep you in place...
