do not drop clutch.. even at 2k.. you will spin.. i ran a 13.7 at 101 with a 2.3 60 foot but i had little stuff done to the car. the best mph that night for me was 103 and the best 60ft was 2.2. i am going to the track again on the 20th.. this time i will lower the pressure a little and you have to slip the clutch a little taking off. u also need to spin the tires a little to clean them off before you run it. if you run DR then light them up for a few seconds then launch at 4k (depends how the track is hookin you might beable to launch higher). just play with it and you will find out how your car like its. all tracks are different so its hard to tell someone how and where to launch.

Why not go to the dragstrip and try several techniques?
