Maybe go fairly high to actually reduce grip so you can get a bit of wheelspin off the line and give less rolling resistance down the strip. Problem with 4WD is too much grip so you have to make the clutch do all the work.

Also take it steady on the roads around Melbourne as mobile speed traps are frequent.

surely you want to drop your pressures to give better grip off the line. the 1st 60ft are critical.
