You will find that racers have a preference of brand that can vary, but the important thing is to get the version designed for a stick that will fit your wheels and your car and gearing. Most will advise running tubes as well.
The launch experience is going to be very different. Make sure you check over everything in the drive train. It is going to get tested! Good Luck!
