More! So why is the idle so important?

I'll speculate that it's important to have a good idle tune so that there's no loading up of the plugs before a launch, which could cause some broken parts.

i don't think loading up the plugs is a big deal. idle temps are important though. you don't want to splash a 700 degree plug with 50 degree temp fuel.
idle speed has a lot to do with the clutch....
