Default What RPM do I dump at??

Alright i posted my times earlier now I need to know how to improve them. I read about guys dumping the clutch at 5000rpm. On the Goodyear F1's I let it go at 3000rpm and got a cubic butt ton of wheelspin. Do I just rev it and slowly let out on the clutch or just pop like I did earlier. I tried easing out the last few times and did ok but the bog off the line is killing my times.

If you are going to continue to use stock radial F1's than you will have to feather it off the line. If you spend a little money and buy the ET streets you can launch at 4000+. I'm not saying this will be the best thing for your rear end, but you still have a warranty!

Try slipping it kinda quick from 45-4700.

Get some drag radials such as nitto's or equal where you can get your sixty foot down. Nitto's require a long burnout by the way. Cheers.....
