What do you launch at when you race?

I was just wondering exactly how do you guys launch and at what RPM's with a 6mt coupe?

Whatever RPMs do not spin the wheels and make you loose traction!!! Probably between 3000 and 3500.

Do you hold it at that then dump the clutch?

NO, you feather the clutch as you need it...meaning, gets the revs up, and start pulling the clutch up as fast as you need to without losing traction.

2 G or NOT 2 G, there is no question!

never launched on the street, I value my license too much, in parking lots I usually do 4000 rev clutch drops, while feathering the gas as much as possible until it feels hooked, then drop the pedal to the floor. This all takes about a second and its all feel, ya just gotta play with the car until you figure it out.
