Use map 8.

Clutch out to the point right before the car is about to roll. Keep the rpms in the 2000-2200 range, Feather the clutch out when it turns green ( DONT DUMP THE CLUTCH). Wait until you feel you could go WOT without spinning and go for it.


Dont worry about the reaction time it doesn't effect your ET.

Island on Friday nights has virtually no track prep so you will not get great times. If you're lucky you'll crack a 115-116 trap, but your ETs will be miserable. I am assuming you're going on street tires

no plans saturday so might as well get track day out of the way. i'm not going all out, just 93+meth on 18psi and drags. If I'm stuck in the 12's you're driving down the track for a run or two. You are 75 lbs weight reduction too
