As long as it doesn't spin, I always turn on the first bulb, torque it up to 2000rpm and let it creep until the 2nd light just comes on and hold it there at 2000. That way your high enough it won't "cough" when you mash the throttle and most importantly, you will be staged in the exact same spot every time. Leave it in drive, don't move side to side as you go down the track and if you know your going to take too much stripe, with a street car just tap the brake without letting off the gas.

And MOST importantly, if your 16, then look for tracks that have trophy's, I know it sounds dumb, but when your old (er) all those old trophy's in the garage will mean a lot more then the cash or cheques you got and are long gone.

(and always have fun and don't beat yourself up when you make a mistake...cause you will make mistakes)
