if its a 6 speed rev it to 6000 and dump the clutch...remeber to have slicks on when you do this...

lol on slicks i wouldent dump it over 4000 is stay around 3500 or so...if it was me id actually bring i to about 4500 and ease into the clutch while giving it more gas try not to let it bog below 3000...or so...

if its an auto just preload then stab the gas

I dont think the 4.10's and 10 bolt are going to live long dumping the clutch on slicks.time for a 12 bolt or 9in rear..
