Since leaving off the yellow was too slow, I would pause and try to hit it half way between yellow and green.

I think you are mixed up here a little.

If you were slow leaving off the yellow, waiting to leave between the yellow and green would make you even slower.....

I dont know...Anyways look at this video me me in my old car footbraking with a setup similar to yours.

I am leaving at 2000 RPM and leaving when the 3rd light comes ON.

This wasnt a killer RT I think around .030 or so but this is how I have done it, and won a lot of races over the last 23 years.
