Probably around 4k but the CDV prevents the car from a decent launch 95% of the time. I guess it's just to prevent driveline stress and stuff breaking more than usual.

I guess I brought a shotgun to a sniper competition -- but it sure was a fun course :)

Thanks also to Judi, Jennifer, Mary, and everyone else who put on the Chick School. I was so glad to see students at the points event, and we all had an awesome time! I am totally digging my shirt!

Chick school seems to have corrupted my sister - she was test driving Minis this past weekend :)

Matt, FWIW, I almost never have an issue launching. Are you side stepping the clutch, or just letting it out 'swiftly'? I find the latter just won't do the trick. I literally dump the clutch to get a good launch in the AP2.
