I don't have 10psi yet, but I launch the same as I did NA. 2500-3500RPM dump, depending on track conditions.

I found that I have to feather the top of first gear to prevent spin. Other than that, it was the same as racing NA.

On street tires ya gotta dance, the 1-2 shift will get ya too, so take it easy. Theirs no sense powershifting 1-2 if your gonna spin through 2nd. With 10psi you got plenty of power, ya just gotta dance. With slicks its 5500 dump and shift what a great feeling a 1.8sec 60' is!
