Need some input

Haven't had my 95 to the track yet, and I'm thinking about going this Tuesday. The car has 98,000 miles on it, stock clutch, stock 3.42 gears.

Mods are :
K&N Coldair intake
SLP airfoil
Hooker Ceramic Coated Longtubes
!EGR
!AIR
Throttlebody Bypass
Descreened MAF sensor
LT-4 Knock Module
Jet Skipshift eliminator
Flowmaster 80 series muffler
!Catalytic Converter
Cutout
Lakewood lower control arms
BFG Comp TA Drag radials on salad shooters

I think I'll leave the BFG's at home, as I really can't afford to break my rear.

What RPM do you guys think I should launch at?
What kinda times can I expect to see?

thanks alot
Clint

Most likely you are going to be running mid to low 13's at anywhere from 104-108 with those mods. Bring the BFG's with you, i highly doubt you will break your gears on a DR with stock gears and a stock clutch. Your clutch will slip well before you break your rearend. It will be pointless racing on street tires if your car is running strong.

I also agree about the DR's.
