I did some experimenting this morning. My take is hit the button when you see 5200-5400 or so. Closer to 5200 because I'm betting the peak power band is not 6000.

Check dyno sheets on 5-stars website maybe.

Yup, I saw that his is a 150, so I'm hampered by a ton (literally) of extra weight and realize I won't run even close to low 15s. I've been throwing chit down dragstrips for a long time and it usually takes me 6-8 runs to get the most out of it, so I hear what you're saying and agree. It took me 3 runs in my Rustang to realize what felt like a slow shifting trans was actually me just barely touching the rev limiter.

Stay tuned, I'll post up my slip tomorrow night along with a corrected number for comparison. I'll see if I can get the truck weighed also.
