Ignore stand.

Place bike upright on ground with both wheels facing down.
Loosen track nuts
Pull wheel back.
Shove fingers of left hand between seat tube and wheel (at the point where the wheel is closest to the seat tube)*
Using left hand to keep wheel straight, tighten drive side just enough so that nothing can move
Check straightness and tension.
Tighten drive side a bit more.
Tighten NDS, making sure wheel stays straight.
finish off drive side

*The way I do this is hook the NDS chain stay with a few fingers then use my thumb to push against the seat tube while using free fingers to push wheel back.
