John, HOW DO YOU BRAKE BOOST??????? Well, at least for roll on situations. You seem to be the master at it

ride the brake enough to load the engine and start building boost while your at the desired speed. Simultaneously coming off the brake and going WOT when it's time to go. Another thing that helps me is my 2 step on my msd. You can build boost while on the rev limiter as well. It also makes for nice flames and loud bangs!

Ok, been tying it. can do it sometimes, but sometimes the motor jsut boggs and no boost builds.

Also, how bad is this on your clutch??

its not bad at all for the clutch its bad for the brake pads....and not bad really just wears on them faster. INHO a real track day its ALOT worse. I went through one complete set in one weekend...vs my 951 where the same set have been on there for over a year
