The MS3 is definitely all in the launch. I took mine to the track this weekend and pulled off a 14.6 my first run, but then kept bogging on every run after that and only got back in the 14's once more out of like 7 runs. One of those, I got massive wheel hop and then flubbed the shift to 2nd so I just said screw it and cruised down to an 18.8 at 59.6 mph. LOL. What could have been my best run of the night didn't even get recorded b/c the tree F'd up on me and my friend in his S2k. The guy at the tree was waving us to go and my friend left first and I was catching him by the end of the 1/4.
BTW, I did manage to beat a MS6 who had a race pipe.
