You dont want to actually hold the car back with the brake, you just want to prevent the car from rolling while you stall on the converter up to about 1200-1500 rpm and release the brake immediately once you are there.

In terms of mods, i would definitely get the IC although that may not provide a huge benefit from a single run assuming your IC is not already heat soaked when you start the run. You can also ditch the JB4 and get a flash.
My issue is traction I will try that kind of launch. What about a roll? Like 25/45 what's the best way to launch from that.
what trans?
