4500 definitely isn't too low of a launch. My launch control is set at 4200 and the car bogs badly off the line with street tires! I plan on putting mine to at least 5K the next time I tune it.

Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
Awesome Trance' very nice times... yeah, a guy local to me runs his slicks on the front of his Mirage at 10psi and they look like ther're gonna BLOW on him. But his slicks are made for that...? Not sure what kind they are though sorry. I'd run 15psi if I were you.. In the burnout pit light em till "they" pull you out of the pit. Then they are gonna stick best by the time you pull up and stage. Keep us posted.. those are some Amazing times for just a LS turbo. And don't forget to post us some pics.

Re: Trance also went to the track yesterday
Yeah I thought 4500 was a pretty respectable launch RPM as well. I'll bet the wheelhop and over inflation was what got me. I'll lower the pressure next time and heat them up a bit more and see what that yields me. 10psi yeah that was my Primer Integra 
I made only a couple runs because I had no helmet. I'm very surprised they didn't warn me. Thanks for the info shanerv, I will certainly try those tecniques out next time. It was something I've never tried before and I think I'm hooked 
I can't wait to get back there to run some more.
