I have tried both the gas stomp and stalling it up to 1200, which is just about the traction breaking point in my car, and have managed to get 2.147 60' on street tires with 4.10's....of course there is some tire burn the first 5 to 10 feet and second gear burn.

Samething here. See my times bellow. On M\T, i asked a regular at the track if i should apply the brakes and get the RPM higher, he told me there s a safety on the computer over 1800 RPM without wheel turning. So i guess you cannot rev it higher than 2000 at the line without putting it in safety mode.

Anybody else on that one????
