I launch around 6k-6.5k and it grips with no slippage at the drag strip. That 6 puck likes the higher RPM

The perfect launch is the kind where you win at the end, and don't break anything in the process.
Yeah x400

If anything, i prefer to start gently then go hard - always have done.

Whenever i 'try' to launch i just feel compassionate for my wallet and think actually, this car looks great when girls look at it - with a working clutch.
