I have been told that locking the Torque Converter up at
1100 is the best possible launch ... others go from idle ...

It's whatever works for you .....

It all depends on the track, or how sticky it is. I was able to bring the revs up to 1000 against the brakes and gently rolled on the gas. This gave me a 1.99 sixty foot.
