Burnout... I usually drop @ 4500 and floor it instantly

Launch... Anywhere from 2500 to 3000 RPM, feather the clutch just a tad (almost no feathering), and floor it once I feel the tires hooking up. Make sure you don't bog the car or floor to early (no traction).

Controlling the throttle is very important in the first second after the launch.

Redline it and when it bounces off the limiter like a civic's rear plate, dump it. If the motor goes boom.............. chic's really dig this. Good luck to you.
