The thing that I think is key is I was relaxed during that run and just kinda went. Roll onto the throttle and you won't have any wheel spin if you launch at 1800ish rpm and when you shift, you want the tach to drop into the mid 4k's which is the meat of your torque/rpm. As the day went on, I found myself revving the car up higher and higher and only once I realized what I was doing did my times begin to drop towards mid 12's again. Only give it enough gas to build a ~little~ boost, not a LOT of boost, or you'll spin all the way to a 2.1sec 60'.
