i'd lower my tire pressure to 30 or 25 in the front (don't worry about the back) and take out anything that you don't need (spare tire, jack, speaker box, passenger, etc.). tricks of the trade...............get a good launch, focus on your car and shifting not the other car, don't red light at the tree,& winning is good but having a good trip down the strip is better if you lose oh well just means you need more work done to your car. That's all i have for you.

good luck............

Make sure you run your gas tank down to at least 1/4 :)

Don't forget to remove your power steering and AC belt.
