I might have to give it a try, but its not that I can't hold the brakes, it's that it takes about 5 seconds or more to build much boost and its hard to be consistent when you have to stand on both pedals at the same time for that long and then try to time the launch. I really just would like to be able to come to the line and mash it and go.

It's not just the fuel puddling you have to worry about at low rpm.
Think of it like this. In a dyno plot, hp is derived from torque using the formula of (Tq*rpm)/5252. Nitrous adds whatever pill you're spraying through at any rpm. It doesn't change the rpm at which you make the power. So an engine that makes 300 hp @6000 rpm(262 ft lbs @6000rpm) and only 50 hp @ 1500 rpm(175 ft-lbs@1500rpm) that you throw a 100 shot on will now make roughly 400hp@6000rpm (350 ft-lbs) and 150@1500(525 ft-lbs!!!!!) Most engines make more than that at low rpm, some people spray more. That just makes it even worse. It's just a huge torque shock until you're above 5252 rpm, when it evens out. Thats a pretty good reason not to spray real low unless you're mad at your driveline
