Street or strip? Big difference between the two. I prefer the strip http://www.lextreme.com/pul/animtree.gif

Assuming you are still running street tires and a 5 speed your problem is gonna be traction, launch around 2000-2500, feather the clutch to keep traction, power shift 2nd at 5500 or so and same into third

If you have an auto then hold your left foot down on the brake as hard as you can and bring the revs up with your right foot, let go with your left and play with the gas to keep from losing traction, once you are rolling floor it and keep it that way
