Best way to launch 6mt

As with just about any manual trans car, you have to figure out how much to slip the clutch for whatever RPM you choose to launch. Your fastest acceleration from a stop will be with just a tiny bit of wheel spin. Too high RPM with a fast clutch release usually equals a big burnout. Too low RPM with a fast clutch release usually equals bogging off the line.
So it's hard to give you a definitive RPM you should launch at because it really depends upon how much you slip the clutch and apply the throttle as you're launching. Just practice your launches in a big parking lot until you got it down.

Yeah, I agree to some extent. I don't really have an interest in beating on my G, so no really hard launches for me, but at the same time, the clutch isn't nearly as fragile as some people on this forum make it out to be. Keep in mind that the Z is basically the same set-up and those the Z guys tend beat up on their cars more often (on average) than G guys.
