also, whats some good advice for takeoff, rpms and stuff like that and should i try to do a burnout cause i have never done one while staying still
Try diff. techniques, every track is different. I feather mine off the line till I get traction then ROMP on it....

No do not burnout on your stock tires. Only if you have some sort of DRs or slicks or something

lower your pirellis to about 25 psi then after you do a small burnout just hold it at around 3krpm and let the clutch out easily. DONT dump it or you will probably kill something. I can't really explain it, it's just a feeling. I ran a 2.0 60ft on stock tires and just keep in mind not to dump the clutch. Once you feel your friction point let it out easily and you will hardly spin at all. GOOD LUCK

68ss is right, you want to rev up to about 3k to 3.5k rpm and let the clutch out easy
