Default Leaving in high gear with a dragster????

I am going to try leaving in high gear to calm car down enough to run a 5.50 index class. It is only going to slip the converter, not the tranny right? Car currently runs 4.80's so leaving in high may not be enough. Going to run a regular bracket race this weekend just to test it.

What do you guy's think???

Think I will have tranny heat issues? Currently runs around 140-160 degrees even in late rounds almost like round robin.
