Re: Count or stare
Find your best spot on the last yellow and focus on hitting that spot.
The way my car leaves I focus on leaving as soon as the second light goes out. JimR

Re: Count or stare
Always counted from day one. I have a few wins counting to the rhythm of boom boom boom.

Re: Count or stare
Every time I stare my mind wanders and I am really late, in fact last time I stared i got a parking ticket from the starter.
Mark those voices are very calming, put the gun away, put the gun away. Steve your "voices" are in your sleep know what I mean. Stockers who stare must have a car that launches really hard to have a good light. If they are anticipating that defeats the purpose of staring????

Re: Count or stare
I usually stare at the tach to keep my rpm's just right and rely on the starter to tap on my window to tell me to go. This system in infalable!
