ROFL @ 60'.

Don't worry, bro. You'll get better. I remember the first time I ever went in my Mustang... We are all there at one point. If after your second or third trip you're still cutting lousy 60's there's a problem, but for your first time out... don't worry. Just keep at it!!!

You need to slip the clutch a bit and modulate the throttle if you encounter too much spin. If you spin too hard from 3k launch a little lower or feather the clutch a little more.

Edit: Also, always drive AROUND the water box and do a little dry hop (quick spin of the tires) before you stage to clean off any debris you collected in the pits. You don't want to do a burnout with street tires -- don't want them too hot.
