thanks again guys:)

Need more car info.

99 ta M6 346 CI STOCK EXCEPT K&n.....AND IM IN NEED OF BETTER DRIVN SKILLS

since we are on drag tips what do people launch there auto cars at ????

Most M6 guys launch around 2500 - 3000. It depends on your tires and ablility to ease the throttle to prevent excess wheel spin. Best thing to say is practice somewhere you won't get a lot of attention. Also, if you use street tires, make sure to lower the preasure. Some drop the preasure around 20 - 25 lbs. Ask around to a few guys at the track and see what they do. Sometimes you will find some peopel that will help you get an idea about the lanes.

thanks but ill be on a 555R now instead of my stock tires

At the strip I roll quickly onto the throttle from a small(about 1,400 rpm) preload after a short(4-5 sec.) dry burnout on street tires with a normal 35psi. Notice I said roll quickly, not stab, the throttle. Leave when you see the 3rd yellow shine. Also, I vote for letting stockish autos shift themselves. Do the burnout in 1 though so it doesn't try to skip to and bog down in 2nd. Don't forget to put it back in 3 or D before you start. If you leave it in 3 take your hand off the selector to keep from yanking it back toward 2 or 1 when it hits a gear. Drag radials will allow more revs at the line and lower psi.
