AT Race tips

Mikey335 · 05-20-2012, 10:14 AM

I've never taken my car to the track yet and im going this next weekend.

I was wondering if anyone has any tips for AT?

DCT/DSC Off?

What RPM to launch at?

I'm only running a Jb4+DCI.

DTC all the way off (hold for 5 seconds)
Brake boost (hold the break and gas)
Use paddles, to manually shift at 6000-6500k rpm
Try First and Second gear launches.

Be safe, have fun.

launch in 2nd gear and do as the above ^^

only launch in 1st if you can limit boost in 1st gear to 8-10psi
