Ok, there are three amber lights that are being lit consecutively. The following is the green start light. I've drag raced before and if i go as the green light comes on, i notice a slight delay in my time. There was a guy that would go when the third amber light came on and i worked good for him. I just want to know if there is any trick with the light. Thanks

 

Thats the trick...work on reaction time...

 

I assume that you are referring to the Sportsman’s tree where the amber lights come ON sequentially?

The method that you use depends on your reaction speed. You can key on any of the 3 amber lights. Experiment. What works best for others may not be best for you.

 

I leave when the second amber is lit (the third is lighting as I slip the clutch...)..

It really depends on how slow your car leaves the line... with my 2.1 60fts and the amount of slip I have there is more of a delay than my buddies A4 GTO that pulls 1.8x ~ 1.9x 60fts

He has to leave when he sees the third amber light up... practice/trial and error are the only way to figure it out.
