Hey guys I plan on making the short trip to Chattanooga tommorow and running my 2001 Tahoe down the 1/8 just for fun. It's nothing fancy just a nice street truck.
My question is? With a yank 3000 would I be better trying to launch it off the footbrake or should I just floor it and let it flash? I also have a 2 step that I installed just because I like making noise but I really don't think it's anything that will help performance wise idk...

Any pointers or opinions are appreciated, thanks

 

I really think you just going to have to try both. It can be either. I would stall it first but traction is imperative for et even though spinning a bit can produce a higher mph sometimes. Either way you're gonna have fun!

 

Thanks Ted, I agree I will have fun. This will only be my second time at the track.

 

I'd bring it up to 1k and flash it man. Have fun

 

I'll give it a shot thanks j

 

that method works for my setup. Just try both

 

Thanks Pittman, unfortunately the races went over last night and test and tune is cancelled. I guess I'll just watch the big dogs play today

 

My buddy brought his new vette bye it's a 97 auto 5.7 . I copied his pcm data thinking I could get some decent info off it as I'm pretty sure the 01 electric throttle data might be similar.
we ran them from a 20 roll to about 80 and he pulled a couple cars after starting out a couple cars behind me. It was fun I wasn't embarrassed at all. Except when I brake launched his vette across the highway and hit third gear and tried to swing me into a ditch lol

 

I should left it in 3..my shifts are set at 6400 that way. I dropped it in first and tried manual shifting and jumped the gun and as soon as I shifted too second the computer allowed second @5700 or so
