Thanks for the tips!

Yeah I was shifting at 6000 as I thought any higher wouldnt have as any benefit.

What do you mean by slipping?

I think he just means ease the clutch out, and not to dump it.

When I watched my video it looks like my car changes at 7000rpm plus.

in other words, the only dumping you should be doing is in your pants

Great video Ryan!

Camera angle basically the same as mine but so much better picture quality! Just convinced me to buy myself a newer model GoPro I think. 8)

Try slipping it at 4500rpm and then pouncing on the loud pedal.

With your mods Ryan you should be running a 12.4-12.5 @ 110-114mph

And I second what Adam said about stretching first and second

Mick

Dr20t would you also whether in a street run or the drag strip use the hand brake in a manual to take off?
