Proper way to launch? and proper tire pressure?

I'll be going to the strip for the first time tonight so what is the proper way to to launch? What PSI should I have my tires at?

My mods are in the sig.

Thanks

I don't know what kind of tires you have but I would guess to run about 28 psi and you probably have Z rated tires. Don't do a burnout, it's a waste of rubber on a Z rated tire, you do want to spin them a few times to clean the gravel off. I would guess to launch about 5,500 on 18's. The best way to find all this out is to actually "test and tune", nobody can really tell you how to, you just have to find it yourself.
Good luck

I still have stock wheels and tires, but I had to lower my tires to an unsafe 10psi before they would stop spinning...
