MKS, honestly i dont even know how to launch my tip. Ive tried so many things and ive post a thread and ppl told me to hold the brake and throttle it to get the PSI high and launch it. Well, i tried that once, but i will not do it again because it kills the transmission badly. so how Did you launch ur tip turbo?


And one more thing, it seems ur car is real easy to get up to 280km/h . Mine .... i throttle full but PSM was ON .. sport mode on... i did it up to 278KM, it was hard for my car to go up to 280 for a reason! Does turning off the PSM makes a diff? ... and i noticed my car is unstable when constantly running 250km and above.

i turn the traction off and put it in sport and left foot on the brake and right on the gas til the rpms go up a bit ..try it slowly and if will work and make sure its in first gear.

btw my car is not stock
