when the last yellow light lights up. that is when to jump. bring an air compresor to inflate your tires incase you deflate them too much. deflating your tires will give better grip but less top end. and have fun good luck

just pop tthe hood when you get there and by the time you get registered and put the numbers on your window and go to the bathroom. and get drinks eat and then go to the bathroom again ( you dont want to be going down the track and have to go) no wait you do cause then you'll go faster HEHE. then it should be cool. but once you race like 2-3 times your car will be right back to opperating temp.
