Default When should I spray?

My mods are listed at the bottom. Im going to invest in a 125 wet shot and if that holds fine im gonna up it to a 150 wet shot. The car will be on nitto drag radials on my stock 16 in. wheels. So two questions actually, what rpm should i launch at, and what gear should i spray in?

On a decently prepped track, you should be able to spray in first gear with no problems on the nittos. Last year, I was launching at 3500 RPM with my nittos. You just have to let the air down in them and heat them up real good. I have a dual stage dry shot with the first stage (about 80hp) coming on at 3000 RPM. and the second stage (100hp) coming on at 4000 RPM. When launching at 3500, the first stage is activated immediately, and the second stage come in soon thereafter. My nittos hooked hard enough to put an inch or so of daylight under the left front tire, and that was with stock wheels. My mods are in the sig. See my website for more details on my set-up.
