holy ****...

roll from 40 drop into second (if you have stock gears)

Launching: Practice. Try launching between 1500-2000 if you are gonna drop the clutch, or try 3000 if you are gonna let the cluth out slowly, just to experiment.

Donuts? First gear, rev to 1500-9000 rpms and drop it, then spin. watch the throttle though, try and stay below redline n ****. While you are doin this, crank the wheel. Then try to pop the trunk and hood, and turn on the A/C for bonus points.
i don't know that i would recomend that, as that might just blow it up. but you don't have to take my word for it.

Hey everyone,

I'm new to the street racing scene. I'm new to the car scene. I just got an 07 Mustang GT...5 speed. I love it. I'm addicted to this web site, i'm addicted to the car. I've been doing tons of research on it, both before and after I bought it.

I need some racing tips.

OK - is it standard to race from a roll at 40 mph? What gear should I drop down to at this point...3rd? 2nd?

What's the best way to get a great launch? What should I rev to? Drop the clutch all the way immediately?

How do you do doughnuts?

Anyone know a good performance shop to take the Stang to in OKC?'

THANKS FOR THE HELP!
simple question: how old r you man?

spend 500 bucks or something for advanced driving school, it will be best money invested

otherwise you seem to be perfect candidate for ODV... Organs Donor Volunteer
