Uuuh... bolding the brake and the gas to put load on the engine, in effect building boost early so when you let off the brake you rocket off.

Thats what i figured but I didn't know u can do it from a roll.

I dont think he needed a good jump, he could have given the vette a few carlengths and still would have taken him.

I love when 4 cylinder cars beat v8's and I'm not a Chevy fan at all, but I agree with nick_200321. Street races like that are hard to judge because it did look like the vette let off. I'm not trying to take away from that Talon cause that was a sweet car...I love the sound of the turbo spooling up. I guess we'll never know unless the vette driver is going to come on here and admit the loss haha.
