I dont think my stock clutch would like that too much :rolleyes: I only start spinning the tires at about 6500 in first, but it isn't enough to make a difference. I was launching at about 3500 with a little slipping of the clutch. It resulted in a little wheel spin, and then it would hook up.
The thing that sucked was, when we were getting ready to leave after the lanes closed,they started to roll out the VHT traction compound

Johns freind with a 99 Mustang GT went as well. Its an AT w/Pro-M maf, bassani exhaust, intake...and he was running 14.3's. He had his tires aired down to 25, and could not get traction. On the street his car wont spin the tires at all, if you floor it. So I know the track was bad.
