Apparently that isn't actually on a launch, so this is more retarded than previously thought. Danny, you're forgiven for not posting wheels up launch pics based on this info.
Check this pic, the wheelie is at like the 1/4 mile mark based on the background

He, he said it does better wheelies with the bigger wheels. The whole drag racing aspect of this game fails.

Oh btw, Datsun = 8.2's!
If you aren't launching good try changing the gearing apparently. Make your own Power glide by adjusting the 6 speed ratios so you only use 2.

Go like 1.4 1st gear, 1.0 2nd gear, adjust the final drive to get you through the traps in 2nd gear and see if it'll hook.

For 1/4 mile adjust it so you have 2 gears, dump it off the limiter with traction control ON. You can thank me later.


EDIT- BTW use full manual with a clutch in drag racing, much quicker. About 2-3 tenths usually.
