Default What rpm to launch from on 2 step

I've got a '96 ws6 M6 with the msd two step on for the first time this season. I'll be running street tires some times and ET street radials later on in the season if I can spring for another set.

I'd like to use the 2 step with street tires just to get in the habit for bracket racing and get some practice in. I'm about to order the chip set for the 2 step and need to pick an rpm range for my street tires. Any ideas?

BF goodrich g-force's on stock 17's are what I've got on it now. lt1 with boltons, stock gears, and a bit of spray. No plans to leave on the spray this year at least

My guess would be 2000-3000 with a street tire. I can launch my 01 on the street with drag radials/4.10/m6 close to 3000 and it hooks. So i'm guessing street tires on a 3.42 rear on a track somwhere around 2500. Et streets I would say 4000
