I found out a day too late at the SCCA DC Pro Solo last weekend. As the start was on an incline it would have really helped to do my practice starts with this part of my launch. It was only after a fellow 1M owner came up to me and mentioned it Saturday afternoon when I was finished for the day. My first run Sunday I red lighted with a .473 as I tried to embrace the hill holder.
