I preferred not to do a burn out after trying a few, the tyres were warm anyway and the track was fairly warm.

I also launched like i would from traffic lights but harder, I did not rev at about 3000 then dump the clutch.

I had a really good period of 4 runs where the times were getting consistant and using the above technique worked for me.

I just love the car and the car obviously loved it! 19 hard runs and I mean hard runs through the day and nothing broke!

I want the scirocco finished now so I can start on the Drag racing fettle lol
