I pull into the water until my rear tires are right in the center of the water. When they give the signal to stage I pull just out of the water, with the car in second (I have an auto) I smash it to the floor and hold it. I have my side mirrors adjusted so I can see the rear wheel wells. Once they start to smoke it will begin to bog and the rpm's will drop when they get below 3,000 I let off and smash down again to flash the converter. The rev's will go right back up, I then hold it while it smokes for 5-10 seconds. You have to really get Nitto's hot for them to hook. If you don't get good white smoke off of them they won't work. I run my tire pressure at 18-19 lbs and that seems to work best.
