That's not a launch that is tire smoking mahem. I'd almost be willing to bet that probably has less shock on the driveline than a 6-7k launch because the tires instantly spin up with no hope of grip.
Usually when I go to the track I do an 8000 rpm launch to get the tires heated up before I go to the line... Then on the line I launch at 8ish. The tires spin for a second, but they hook very quickly, and I stay in vtec the whole time.

do you mean actually side-stepping the clutch at 8-9k rpm, or feeding in the power aggressively with heavy slip ?
I would never side-step a clutch, I just pop it up very quickly.

The 6 puck clutch doesnt alow for too much play when lauching, so there isnt too much slipping you can do.


should be done weds and hopefully all goes well
