Burnout RPM's Auto & Line Lock

[GoFaster06]

Everybody with an automatic & a line lock. What rpm's are you releasing the line lock switch with your burnouts?

I look at the mph between 55 and 60 and then release and roll thru the burnout. Been leaving it in drive in lieu of shifting or a 2nd gear burnout. Working nicely so far.

Thanks, Ray. Anybody else?

I have been putting it in 1st, shifting into 2nd once the tires are rolling/smoking but before hitting the rev limiter which can be touchy being FI, then shifting into D and rolling out....I need to get better on the rolling out.

What rpm or speed are you releasing line lock?

I can't really say as I am watching the tires or the person standing outside the car letting me know when to roll out.

I put it in 2nd gear, run it up to 55 mph for a couple of seconds, then hit the switch and give it a little more gas when I roll out. Then I stop, and click it into drive before I pre-stage.

Forgot that last step once....makes for a shitty run, as you're bouncing off the rev limiter at a little ways past the 60 foot mark.
