Finally made it to the track for the first time on friday, but when I went to launch, I seemed to keep bogging the engine. For those of you that are running the 4.10's with street tires, what RPM are you launching at? And also at what shift point? Other that the gears, I just have a CAI with a SCT tune mufflers, and 255/45/18's. Ordering some LCA's today, hopefully those will help along with some practice.
Thanks in advance.

If you are running street tires, you will be traction limited unless you launch at pretty low rpms. I'd probably try a 2000rpm launch and slip the clutch a lot as I brought the power on.

i launched between 1500 and 1700 rpm last time at the track (4.10s and stock tires). it bogged once, and the rest of the times it just spun them almost uncontrollably. you will still pull 60' same as stock, but there is a LOT more potential if you have tires that grip
