Ah, yes, 150 hp and about 3300 lbs doesn't go well together.

My launch where i was getting 5.2 and 5.3's was done two different ways, both wree close in times, but i prefer the second way. The first way was to hold it at 5 and dump it, the second way was to hold it at about 3-3.500 so it was on full boost and feather it out quickly. if you try the first way and shooot too hight on the rpm's or slip the clutch a little you are going to end up with wheels spin, the second way is a lot easier on the car, but you have to be quick with you feet.
