Until you get rid of the peg leg, I wouldn't get excited about even trying to hook up. That's way too much torque for one tire to handle without getting some major weight transfer, which certainly won't happen on the street.
Street and track are very different.
(IMO) get the locker in, lower the psi for the track, disconnect your sway bar on one side, then make 3 or so runs at the track (the street is a total waste of your time). Then start making adjustments, one thing at a time with at least a few runs in between changes (unless you find that what you did is totally out of the ball park).
Also this is a perfect time to start a note book. Go to a drag racing forum, and you can see what information you want to start recording. It's pretty easy, and really helps drop your times quickly, while remaining consistent. Plus it's a kick in the pants to look back at 10 years from now.
Good luck, and more importantly... Have Fun! Safe and slow on the street, Safe and fast at the track!
