Ignore the noises...it simply means that the car will weigh less after you repair the drivetrain.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

19 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

What's the prefered method to launch a 02 996 C2 6spd w/ PSM?

POST 3Original post

Use the launcher they used on last week's Top Gear.... You win if you hit the caravan. That was cool!!

POST 4Original post

Redline the car while rolling backwards and slide your foot off the clutch while in 1st gear. Ignore the noises...it simply means that the car will weigh less after you repair the drivetrain.

POST 5Original post

That was great! My wife and I were in stiches watching that

POST 7Original post

Prior to launch lubricate the bi-directional thrust nozzel (see pic). A light spray of WD40 is OK but a thin coat of white moly lube yields a much better lubrication. Best of luck and enjoy your car.

POST 10Original post

Of course the pot would never call the kettle black, now would it?

POST 11Original post

humm, How about hold the rev's at 4000 rpm and side step the clutch (works on the 964), and is pretty easy to get a consistent bracket time once you get the feel for it. (i have a good method for dirt tracking a 964 too )

POST 14Original post

Rob, you've gotta post that pic over on the 964 forum! Brian

POST 15 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I tried all the recommendations above, and the service manager says I need a new clutch kit, cv joints, wheel bearings and some other things! I think it was the WD40 that did it - who would have thought these P-Zeros would hook up so well?

POST 16Original post

rofl. dub, just rev to 4k rpm and let the clutch out quickly (don't pop it/side step off it, but just lift your foot with vigor), i found i got the best launches like this, and consequently the best 1/4 mile times.
