VIR I find I get the best launch out of T12 in second gear. The true tell is your brake point speed at the end of the back straight. If I come out of T12 in 3rd I top at 128-130. If I come out in 2nd I can reach 132-136. Its all uphill any torque you get converts to speed at the end.

Diamond the entry to 12 this also give some extra entry speed. Cut so your headed at the back rumble strip brake quick while straight then turn toward the inside rumble strip and as soon as you can lay on the gas drift out to the outside strip then it all acceleration.

My warm lap time at VIR is 2:19 in traffic to 2:15.5 in clear track
