How brave are you? Neutral drop.
I personally am not brave enough to try this.... anyone else brave / stupid enough to have done this? If so, what happens? It isn't going to be like doing a neutral drop in a conventional auto with a torque converter... if they TCU lets it happen at all, is it like a clutch dump in a normal manual car?

PS: Somebody go test drive and play dumb... just rev it up in neutral and say "oops" as you slip it into Drive

ive done this in many cars, mostly rentals lol but on some of mine as well.
I once had an '85 Nissan Sunny, I was doing 40 MPH fwd, dropped it into reverse full throttle. Then dropped it into drive full throttle and repeated 4-5x more. I was trying to break something but it never happened lol..

Some cars I've been in are completely locked out, you can't even put it into reverse if you're going forwards. With stick, it physically won't go into rev, with the tc-sst, it'll go into rev but then the thing will just blink at you while not physically actually engaging rev.

Perhaps some confusion in terminology here. I was asking about sitting still in neutral, rev up the engine and drop it into drive.... not going backwards at high speed and dropping it into drive... or going fast in drive and dropping it into reverse. We always called that a reverse drop, not a neutral drop.
Sorry if my terminology caused any confusion.

Why would you do a neutral drop when there is a built in launch mode?
Gain like 0.1 sec 0-60 for all that wear and tear? Dumb.

Because I traded in the MR on a Ralliart. No launch control or super sport mode in the Ralliart, and if rumor is correct not going to be in future additions of the MR.

I have tried a mild neutral drop in mine, and it just slips the clutches more. But I'm also not brave enough to do a serious neutral drop.

Thank you for the data... both about the car, and that there really is someone out there crazier than me!
