rFactor racing tips

[Norbury90]

Hi guys, I downloaded the rFactor demo (one car, two tracks) and have been pretty obsessed with it ever since. I havent bought the full game as yet because i'm currently doing exams and if I bought it I would never do any revision.
I use a Logitech Driving Force at the moment, although i'm toying with the idea of buying a G25.
Anyway, I was after a bit of advice, as at the start of the races I never get off the line as well as any of the other cars, even though I am almost fully tuned. So I would like to know how to launch off the line like the others basically.
My exams finish tomorrow though, so hopefully I will be joining you chaps soon for a couple of races

PS. Do any of you know your lap times round Toban Short in the demo car? My PB at the moment is around 1:10.5 but i'm missing a few upgrades, which should get me a few extra seconds.

G25 has a clutch, makes life much easier.

Don't a lot of the cars in rFactor have launch control? If so are you using that?

With auto clutch on if you dial in revs and then engage a gear I'm sure it should be fine without a clutch pedal.

You could momentarily turn on traction control, and then switch it off afterwards.

Auto clutch off, select a steering wheel button as a clutch. Press button, select gear, rev to right amount let go of button.

Yeah, but then you forget to turn auto-clutch back on, spin and stall, then forget what the restart procedure is.... or at least I do!
