ICR: Better Standing Start?

Is there some way to get a better standing start in ICR? I usually floor the gas and then hit return to start, but I usually wind up being passed by 2 or 3 cars. Ideally, one would need to start at a higher RPM, but I don't know if there is a way to do this. Any ideas?

The one trick that I have found is to start the race, get your boost up as high as possible and then do a Shift-R to restart the race. Now when the race starts you will have full boost and more power rather than starting with the boost at 0. You will still be passed by the AI cars however.

I have found that using a pace lap allows you to stay with the pack and you are moving when the green flag drops

And you should be able to work out when the flag will drop and jump a few drivers at the start to pick up a few free places! _________________________________________________________ Harrier Storage Solutions Legato NetWorker 42 Ivanhoe Road, Finchampstead AMASS, Baydel Berkshire, RG40 4QQ EuroLogic, Banyan http://www.harrier.com HP, IBM, Sun, Dec Uk Phone 1734 328 282 SG, NT, Novell Fax 731 130 _________________________________________________________
