Thats a BIG "if". The biggest problem newbies have at the track is letting the excitement get to them, dumping the clutch and putting the hammer down to soon. You GOT to ease of the line, the race is the last 1/8th, not the first.

I gaurentee you Tommy WILL get the "hole shot", and feeling all smug and good, just before Blitz comes by him and win's by two car lengths. Blitz, seeing Tommy get the hole shot, may panic and go to deep on the throttle, don't under estimate the mental part of a drag race. Patience, grass hopper.

Car lengths in drag racing is like a couple hundreth of second, by the way...
