Shinobi Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Queston: I have a FWD Auto. 04 Sonata w/v6. How do you launch FWD automatic cars? Question2: Torque Converters, how do those work? More so, are they something that can be installed on more or less any make an model? I think I might be interested in one of those. Thanks! - Shinobi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate1647545505 Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 Answer, I. Put 1 foot on the brake, push it down. hard. II. Put other foot on gas, watch your tach and let it hit the highest you can go without the car moving forward (usally 2.7k-3kish) III. Depending on power, mash the pedal like it owes you money. for how a torque converter works... http://auto.howstuffworks.com/torque-converter.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stevil Posted June 16, 2004 Report Share Posted June 16, 2004 Practice launching in an empty parking lot or something. Find out how far you can push it until your tires spin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
