quicker take off directly off the line. have the car already pulling forward. plus it helps with squat. then dont strait floor the car, roll into it. i would still roll into it if i just took of normally but now im stalled up and ready to take off faster...make sence

No one said to let off...
You keep it at that rpm for the start and ease in from there...
Not start from idle and bogg...

better reaction time for me. your foots gotta be on the brake any way to keep you from rolling through the lights when your at the staging lane. may as well get a quicker jump. thats how i think about it.

So you get more power all around if you turn off the t/c ??? I always kept it on.

That is if you know how to launch and have good throttle control

Hahaha launching is something i need to practice at, but i am not verry worried about that right now, about 98% of all my races are on the highway, i do mostly 50mph rolls, soo keeping the t/c off even on the highway will benefit me ?? I had a friend tell me one time to just keep it off all the time but i never paid much attention.

FWIW
I keep mine off all the time..
Can't speak for Pontiac but in my car there is a slight difference in a few areas.

This is the way i would recommend.. just try and stall about 1800 to 2200 rpms (what works for me...) you'll still get good 60' times...Ask Blowfish...he's seen my slips with my 60' times, im running close to 2.0 60' s and i have very few mods, keep that TCS off
