5) ESP off
6) Right foot on brake - nothing on the gas.
7) Immediately after the second amber light I take my right foot off the brake and hammer the gas.
My average reaction time this weekend was .099 seconds. My best was .046 seconds. Not great - but I never red lighted, and we weren't bracket racing so it didn't matter anyway.
For anyone who's never tried it - you should. I never did before last fall. It can be intimidating, but once you've gone I think you'll find people will love to talk with you, they will be much friendlier than you can imagine, they'll be supportive, and there's little to no pressure. Oh - and with an SRT-8, you'll be one of the fastest truly street legal cars at any track on any given day.

I would really like to know what you did to get that kind of top end... can you repost your mods? I just re-ran my car in arizona and couldnt get the same times i ran when i had 1500 miles on the car, I have 8k now... My 60 foot times were 2.039 was the best and averged 2.200 best time at 1500miles was 13.4 @ 106 and at 8k was 13.6 @104... bone stock with 22's
I have the gsm/fan mod but I dont look at it as a "performance mod " really.. I had my buddy run the car once and watched, it just doesnt hook up till 2nd gear really, I need to put the 20's on or get some street drag radials....
