 hello everyone dstaar here with another tip on holeshot timing and execution! first off it is about timing so to become successful you need a system to get the best start. my technique is counting from 1-7 with revving the bike. rev,rev,rev,rev,rev,rev,rev then hold down the throttle on the 7th rev for a split second and release. after absolutely nailing your start, the fight is not over!! 1) be neutral on the bike once you have left the gate 2) once the acceleration has become less drastic you can slowly move back the right stick 3) don't turn after you have left the gate right away because this only takes away from your momentum. wait until you have room and you can safely make the turn without hitting another rider 4) be very space aware! know where you are on the gate. and know where you are in respect to the up coming corner if you can master these simple elements of the race you WILL master holeshots another scrub2win race tip brought to you from dstaar

^^ for the people using noahkeegs technique dont look at your tv until you hear the revs it will be like in real life and your reaction time will be alot better due to less anticipation

I personally count to 12, then hold it for 2 seconds and drop the clutch, Making it 15 seconds total. That's just my timing. I think it'll be different for everyone. I count a little faster than the OP but im consistent, so just find your consistent number and you're all set.
