Default What is the perfect Launch?

I was wondering what you guys launch you cars at....

I tried this wonce, but all i got was clutch slippage, not sure if the CDV had anything to do w/ this, but kinda afraid as it might break something...

I know there is a diff/ betw the ap1 and ap2 differentials, but not certain as the exact difference is and what the difference does.

I like 7500 personally for an AP1. Shouldn't have too many problems consistently hitting 2.0 60fts.

My best 60ft on stock tires (1.9) came from an 8500 rpm launch though.

The perfect launch is the kind where you win at the end, and don't break anything in the process.

I have had the best luck just taking off from a light quick. Rev real high and slip the clutch out quick while giving it gas. Usally hold it around 4-5k and slip the clutch while flooring it.
