What is your Tacoma's 0-50mph time?

fellow pick-up drivers, Trent is only 16, But I'm 17 and I race my Tacoma too. I beat all Hondas except DOHC ones. I resently raced a 3000GT SL rolling 1st and I was pulling on him first and second, but once he threw 3rd he got in front of me and didn't pull on me more than half a car. And I'm stock

Didn't know the cat. was so restrictive. ANyways, I have some sad news.... I brought my Tac back to Toyota since the lease was up and I didn't have any time to sell it. I will miss it dearly.

By what i know of double clutching is used wen racing rolling. Lets say your rolling 55-60 on 3rd gear you have a little lag so what I do is I clutch in give it gas and pop the clutch. That helps me get more rpms I might just get ahead. Thats my way of double clutching.

That's not the correct term of "double clutching" but I understand and have personally used your above method. It's definitely not the best thing for the drivetrain.

I'm aweared of that. thats why I don't use it freguently.
