135i with Auto. How do you launch it?

Jeef Beef · 09-01-2011, 10:04 PM

If you are running PROcede V5, try fiddling around with the PROcede traction control for 1st and 2nd gear. Works wonders for me in reducing the torque when wheelspin is about to happen.

At the track this week my first launch was in 2nd, revs about 1500rpm. No wheelspin, 60ft time of 2.06seconds.

The rest of my launches were in 1st, about 1500rpm got me 60fts in the 1.8-1.9 range.

Although this is obviously on a track with lots of rubber, plus doing a burnout before with decent tyres.

Optimum launch is at 10% wheelspin. If you're getting no wheelspin you are not launching as hard as you can.

Hmmm.... I won't waste my time then doing the in 2nd.

Map 2 for you, cos I set the boost target and aggression higher for you. Dial up some PROcede traction control for Map 2 and you should be sweet.
