Default 2 step poll? techniques

Do you guys like to set your 2 step a little bit higher so you can hold the switch/button until you feel like you have traction? Or do you set the 2 step to exact rpm where you can just let off the clutch and floor it? Which one would yeild better results in 0-60? Thanks.

well when i ran at the track with the 2-step, i had it set to about 45-4800. I was flooring it then just dropped the clutch. that netted me low 2.1 on drag radials. but then again that was when i was still having problems with coupling blowing up.

Best thing to do i try both and see what works best for you.

I just hold it at 6k, and dump the clutch.I tried a 7k pill once, and it blazed the slicks too much, so i went back to 6k, been netting 1.72 60'ft's all day

what i do is floor the gas pedal, hold my 2 step button at whatever its set at, which is a lil high causing my wheels to sping, then i would pop the cltuch and instead of feathering the gas, i hold down the button until it hooks. would i get better 0-60 if i set the 2 step lower and just let off the button at the lauch and just feather the throttle?
