I'm thinking he's asking what RPM to bring it up to while waiting for the green to drop at the track.

It depends on a lot of things - the power you're putting down, the car's weight, your tires, the track conditions, etc. Do some dragstrip science and find out what works best for your setup.

Not always Justin. I have not went over this much with you yet. It is similar to what a 6 speed does, but not for the same reasons.
All cars will react differently, even with the same converter. I just take the "slack" out of mine.. 1000 RPMs and gas it on green.
