Rolling starts.
Cause it's more fun to have to chase them down.

rolling starts are especially bad when you race against higher powered cars because you basically have NO chance at all 👎

And, anyway, if you overtune like I do, that's not a problem.

I prefer the standing starts. Alot more even off the line.

Standing starts - that way you get the extra skill aspect of being able to launch the car with minimum wheel-spin. It's not as hard with a rolling start.
A rolling start gives the AI an unfair advantage, and when racing for max A-Spec this can get infuriating! If A-Spec points reflected this dis-advantage then things might be different.

Standing cuz the rolling ones are screwed up and not how they do em in real life.

I'd say both but, I find it more challenging to start from the grid with no ADDs on.

I don't like either. Standing starts are too difficult to manage in high-powered cars (especially with a DS2), and rolling starts were implemented very poorly in this game. Here's an idea: make on of the buttons a launch control button. Whenever you hold it down, TCS is turned on to whatever level you set it to. Once your off the line, let go, and TCS is off.
Rolling starts would be awesome if they just did it right. Everyone gets to go at the same time!!! Letting the lead car get a 5 second jump is rediculous.

standing starts. gets me in the lead quicker. which is all that matters. and on b-spec with rolling starts its hard or sometimes not possible to get your car in the lead on a shorter race...if it is not more powerful than the competition of course

It's got to be standing starts for me. On Hong Kong, you lose loads of time starting in last on rolling starts. 👎
I reckon they should let you choose between the two (at least in Arcade Mode).

I like to set the TCS to 0 and this makes standing starts a little difficult and like has already been mentioned a rolling start puts you on the back foot which is kinda cool

Standing Starts. I'd rather warm up the engine before the race starts.
I like standing starts.
Rolling starts suck balls when your doing a 2 lap race on a small track with low powered cars as its bloody hard to catch up to first when you have about 86bHp.
I dont have too much trouble with highpowered cars doing standing starts with a DS2. Its nowhere near as hard doing it in GT4 as in V8 Supercar (ToCA) Driver 2.
