Not big or clever, that is my worst fear with a 'drag' launch.

I launch at 6k but have taken up the load on the tranny and I know the box will say no soon

...............only a numpty launches at 6k in the dry with awd and expects all to be rosy in the garden :roll:

would have been so bad if he had been on the clutch taking up the play in the drive train and then lifted it up hard, but it sounds as if he just pulled his foot off the clutch now that's asking for trouble!
