Yes.....I go to track mode double tap firmly on traction control button then I pull both paddles and floor.....when you are ready and your steering is straight then let go of the paddles. Once you hear the chirp from the tires you should be ready to launch from the starting line. But first make sure you are in the right mode before you get to the starting line. Also I tried launching the car without doing a burnout.....nothing but spin but my base model HTC still ran a 11.50@121. I lost 2 tenths on my 60ft time. You can see my one and only time of 11.29 when I used the burnout in the Fastlist. Going back to the track soon just to see if there is a little more in this car. All I can say is these cars are quick for what it is......just doesn't have the power for more trap speed.

I'm thinking of ordering the same tire and was wondering what you think of them. Went to the track when the DA was good but after the temp dropped and the surface was cooler I couldn't get traction with the stock All seasons. I had a set of Nittos about 6 years ago on my Scat Pack and was very disappointed with them, I'm hoping these would be a step up from stock and not a step down.
