all you need to know really is for drag racing applications;
soft susspension front an rear for maximised weight distribution,
larger sidewalls over low profile, again for helping shift the weight and applying tourqe to the ground..
correct tyre pressure for the tyres being used (low tyre pressure not always best)
an if et is what your after an you are using street tryes, an most semi slicks NO or minimal burn out..
and although it may be rough on the clutch,
riding it out of the whole untill you feel the bite then stepping off it..
with every pass you do observe things like rpm at launch an what you are doing with your launch weather you are dumping or riding your clutch,
an only after a few runs will you find how to get the best launch out of your set up..
