How to do a "boosted Launch"

We get asked this question a lot... so we made a little video explaining the process.

1st part of the video was supposed to be an obvious joke about safety. This advice is for track use only.

This could also be subtitled “how to break stuff” :-)

Exactly... most guys would never do a boosted launch. Honestly only an idiot would build a diesel race truck (for those who don't know I race the fastest 6.0 powerstroke in the world).

Some of us like to go fast, and willing to push these trucks. And learning to do a boosted launch is key... it may seem simple to those who know. But many who don't know hate asking because they feel embarrassed.

For anyone wondering... my 1800hp race truck has stock 250k mile old front axle, rear axle, transfer case, and driveshafts. My truck lives its life doing boosted launches and has never broken anything. The key to not breaking stuff is avoiding the BOUNCE... bouncing breaks parts.
