launch at the third yellow light..either dropping the clutch at 3-3.5k or riding your clutch at 5.4k...wait...are you on drag radials? if so thats a whole different story, you can try dropping the clutch pretty high on those but just dont mess up your clutch.

yea you can do that. Unless somehow you get a foul...then you'll know what to do. I would just see how much the drag radials would grip then launch higher and higher...dont forget to heat em up also.
