Question 315-35's and a line-lock

I ordered a line-lock for my M6 car so I could do a better job of heating up some nitto 315's. I've been dissapointed with how they hook-up at the track (but never could/tried to hold the foot brake). What rpm should I be able to launch and dump the clutch?

How much will getting these tires really hot help?







(BTW, got the 12 bolt w/4.11, LCA relocation brackets, spohn TA, !front swaybar)

I have heard contradictory info that heating the dr's dont help much but that didnt make sense to me. I even saw guys driving around the water traps at the Texas Motorplex.
