When you get to the red light, stop. Look at the other lights that are green... When they turn yellow, give it just a little gas to hold the RPM up at about 2,500-3,000 rpm. When it turns green, dump the clutch and stomp that go pedal to the pavement.
My first race was against a VW bug with a hell of a lot better PWR. There was traffic in my lane, so I got screwed anyway. :p I did get to see a kick ass 6 foot long flame come out of his tailpipe after that, though.
