Default How to race?

Do I just power break it and then hold the gas to the floor thru the quarter mile. Will the auto shift automatically at 6000 RPM or do I let off to get it to shift. Share some techiques if you will for a good run.

Being that you're bone stock, all you need to do is punch it when the light turns green and keep your foot on the gas until the 1/4 mile mark. If it's not that good of a track then you might need to ease on it more off the line, but you don't have to let off the gas for it to shift since it's auto.

Hammer it..try not to spin off the line. Once it hooks up, hit it hard.
