You aren't neutral-dropping, are you?
Try the brake-torque method. Drop it into '1' so T/C is off, hold down your brake as far as it goes, get on the gas and the RPM's will rise around to ______ (I completely forget) and stop. Jump off the brake anddd you generally get a decent shot foward...

Jesus, why do SS owners hate us base LS automatic owners.
Its practically the same car, with just a different trans, engine, and rims.
I'm not trying to start WWVI on the forums between SS and non SS owners....but come on, we all have the same car.
EDIT: Not all SS owners hate us, just a few.

It's because some people think that the LSJ is the be-all end-all
We deal with it with Redline owners quite a bit. I tend to shut them up haha.
You're absolutely right though Raiden.

Hardly. Just mocking the preceeding quote with its usage of 'lol' and bad grammar. This forum is highly literate compared to others...

wow all i said was to upgrade it a bit, ******** i wasnt making fun of him i just think its pointless launchin an automatic car and yes im sure if he slapped a turbo and a few other mods on he could take me. and as for not knocking what i dont no, why dont you guys do the same cause you dont know what i have either, chances are, i would rape you 2.2 turbos out there. i never meant n e thing bad here, chill guys, and as for the sti, why dont i take out my dads c6 vette and have you trade your car back in, theres always something bigger out there, so talking **** is pointless from manufacturer to manufacturer i was just giving him some advice on upgrading in the chevy department not talking **** or talking down to him, wow if i knew it would be thing big a deal i would have shut my mouth, you 2.2 guys are really defensive
