Absolutely! Then stop car, pick up differential, and call tow truck.

Just about any car with street tires will launch better by slipping the clutch. Really only in drag slicks can you dump the clutch, unless you're making so little power you can't even spin street tires by dumping the clutch haha.

Yeah I tried dumping the clutch yesterday now that I have new tires on the car. Turned the traction control off and it was a good solid 10 seconds of the tires just screaming and the jeep wrangler next to me was passing me getting onto the highway lol.

Challenged today by an 02-ish Caddy STS. LOL. It was funny. VERY angry driver, pissed that I had passed him (four lanes...and he was in the right one), then tried to pass me and get ahead of me. He failed. Miserably. 2.3L DISI Turbo > Northstar 4.6L.
