taking the stang for the first time on wed., ive only ever launched it 1 time racing an lt1 camaro, and that was before my gears. other than that i havent really messed with racing it at all

im not new to drag racing, i have a vw corrado ive put about 25 passes on, but its front wheel drive and runs mid 14's


any advice on air pressure/shiftpoints/launching rpms? my mods and whp are in my sig

tires are hankook ventus v4es 245/45/17 with alot of meat left on them

Skip the waterbox since you're rolling on street tires, I launch around 3k RPM and shift at 5300. Seems to work the best for me. I'm sure some of the more knowledgeable members here will chime in.

i usually go around the water and do a small one to clean the tires off.

5300 seems low though. il have to look at my dyno sheet and see where the power dropped

Shift at about 5800... go around the water and just spin the tires a hair to clean thwe rocks offs.
