Default using spray in the 1/8

I run the 1/8 mile track more than anything, so I'm wondering what the best settings and technique would be for using my juice on such a short run? I usually launch at 2500 rpm's. How about setting my window switch from 3k-5.5k? I'm a newbie so any advice is appreciated:helpsmili

because of all of your mods that help breathing and i am assuming you raised the rpm limiter to 6,400-6,500 like most 2v guys do i would do this.

set the MSD switch for 3-3,200rpms (depends on how the power hits the tires you may need to adjust this higher or lower to help get the car out of the hole) then set the max rpm for 5,800rpms. This works very well for me and i have alot of the same mods minus gears.

I can tell you that if your on street tires its gonna blow them off when the nitrous hits so your gonna have to pedal it some in 1st gear.

Just shift at around 5,500-5,600rpms and you should see a great drop in 1.4 times. Dont be a scared to powershift on the bottle either. Thats why you have the rpm limiter set at 6,400 and the window switch at 5,800 so you can powershift threw and not loose power on the shifts. Thats what i do.
