Stock car on stock tires... i'd say about 2300-2500 RPM max. If you have wheel hop, perhaps it's time to look at new/better shocks

Since Im no mario or jeff, I guess I cant drive like everyone else on this site. But any tips to improve or things to look for on how to get an above average launch would be great. I am on basically a stock vette with stingers, running kinda high airpressure, 32psi, i think. I think I have to learn to feather and feel the car better.

If you mean lauch as in hard acceleration take offs...3000 or so (?)
feathering means your allowing it to slip...not good!
