going to LACR drag strip tonight.
i used to quattro 5k clutch dump launches. what is a good rpm to launch the Z? dont care too much about slipping the clutch too much, if i burn the clutch it'll be an excuse to get a jwt flywheel/clutch combo

Try 2,000, 2,500 and 3,000 rpm. See which gives you the best 60 foot time.

I ran 15.3 with my roadster with 19 inch wheels no spare tire removal. That sounds about right.
