    Paddle your arms through the windows. I just learned this trick. Maybe you can fly too

    But honestly just give it gradual gas until you reach (30?) and then floor it. If you floor it to soon, you'll slip out and lose time. Also Traction Control off just incase you do slip, the system doesn't limit your wheel spin. If you slip either keep flooring or back of real quick and get back on it

    Put the Car in 3rd so it won't shift to OD. Let 5 lbs of air out of the front tires. TCS off. Preload the tranny to 1800 or 2k on the tach. Roll into the throttle to prevent spining and stomp it after it catches traction.

    Or if i have slicks. PRELOAD, STOMP AND GO. I sold the slicks though so now im back to the ol roll method.

    Oh don't get me wrong Bio I always squeak the tires i just don't want excessive squeakage. Usually the last run of the night i do an excessive burnout just for ****s and giggles.

    I dont usually race the GP but, in the TA I drop it in low mash out on the gas (spinnin tires) shift right before the tach gets in the red. DONT stop till your ahead. haha
    None of my cars have traction control


    For some odd reason, I HAVE to be on the right side of lane

    Typically leave in it third to avoid any unnecessary fourth gear action.

    In my car, I go from 1st to 2nd then, shift to Drive. It feels like when I shift out of 2nd into 3rd, that it doesn't shift so I go straight into Drive. I've only lost once (to a modded trans am mines stock except tiny things, air filter & exhaust)
