I like the Hippopotamus method, LOL. Thats when you say hippopotamus as your launching, at about 1/2 throttle, when you finish saying hippopotamus you floor it! I've never tried this myself, but was told it works well. LOL, sounds funny as hell, don't it?

Practice, practice, practice. I'm no expert, but after a bunch of runs you'll get a better feel for when you can stomp on it and not spin. Personally, I brake torque it to about 2k and roll into the throttle feeling if it is going to spin or not before I go WOT.

I must have good luck with input shafts, I leave on a 100 shot of juice with MT race slicks. I've got about 15 passes on spray and more on just motor.![Mr. Cool](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_cool.gif)
I also had a 2000 GTP that made 304 FWHP that I ran a BFG street Slick and I raced that car all the time.

Yeah guys, the Hippo method works, Or you can say MONTE CARLO and then have it floored so people in the car arent confused when you are yelling out animal names for verbal cues. This verbal timing works for me every time!
