Hals 2 in the front and 4 in the rear.
Tire pressure. Start at 12 psi

LOL I already told ya Al to set 'em to 2. 
First time I did that, my eyes did this
after the wheels came back down. After a couple of minutes of recovery, I was ready to go again... with them on 3.
Al's got a 6-speed, and it's a heavy car (no weight reduction). I think he'll bounce too much on 2. I'd start with the fronts on 3 or 4, right rear on 6, and left rear on 5.
Agreed on the tire pressure. 12-13.
Of course, I'm no Coach.

Have some ***** and set the thing on 2 in the front and 4 on the rear.
Set the 2-step at 5000rpms and dump that thing on the 3rd yellow light and hold on.
It is all fun in love and drag racing.

LMAO... 5000? Shoot, I'd dump my wife's minivan at 5000.
6400 off the 2-step is where I'm starting tomorrow. Prolly 5800-6000 on the spray.
Hal's on 4. I bounced way too much on 2 or 3.
