Forza 3 - quick launch?

Hi all, Is there some way of getting off the line quicker when drag racing? Do you time when you open the throttle or is it about holding it back/feeding it slowly to minimise wheel spin?

Short answer, yes! There are a lot of improvements in different aspects of the game - they'll take a bit to get used to but when you do, you'll appreciate them!

There's a fine balance I find, I'm no expert but try practicing with the car and try to find the max revs you can leave the line without spinning.

3-5000k revs works for me usually but it's different for every car of course, just don't rev the crap out of the car off the line unless its 4wd obviously!
