I disabled the ASR and built up revs against the brake. It launched pretty darn good without hardly any wheelspin. I like to shift it myself, just to make sure it goes into low gear at the start. I used to race a tricked out Olds W-31 in 69 and turned low 9's and occasionally high 8's on a cool night, so for a completely stock SL to run like this is very impressive to me. The W-31 had 4.33 gears from the factory, with an automatic.
