just hold them enough to keep the car from rolling, that's it. Very easy.

Just put a light touch on the brake you will feel them catch and thats enough to hold it while its burning out.

like gillbot said and after your burnout and when you stage,idle her up to 1500 and on last yellow smash it. keep about 18ps1 in those nittos hot. you sould 60ft way better than what you are with your mods. my friend cut a 1.58 with the same mods you have . you have a lot left in that car. Jason

Simple answer here. Put a Linelock in her.

Apply brakes (or line lock).

Put transmission in "1", apply gas quickly to 5000+ RPM, then shift to "2". Maintain RPM until you see tire smoke, then release gas and brakes/linelock. You will gently roll forward.

Also--don't forget to move shifter to D. Ask me how I know!

Don't do this on street radials, by the way. You'll wear them out needlessly.
