I think i got about 5.9 0-100 in mine. I've got an auto and i agree it's so very much easier to launch repeatedly similar times.

Kelly: yours might not have the torque that TerroristGHIA has when he runs the bottle.

yeh thats the b**ch about manuals.. you gotta launch at max power n use(slaughter) the poor clutch to stop wheel spin.. xrchic - ive read in more than one place that its not uncommon to, while launching, to have to change to 2nd before youve even let the clutch all the way out in 1st.. < hope that gives you an idea..

tho apparently a tiny bit of wheel spin is ideal too... but i think thats like just a squeals worth.. i duno. mines a stock v8 so i dunno how it applys to 200rwkw stuff.

My I6 does it in 6.1. I have tried a lot of techniques, but found launching at 3500 with a lot of clutch slippage works best for me. Having bugger all power compared to you guys makes it a little easier.
