Launch it high RPM, slip the clutch to the engagement point.

Then you feather the clutch out and push in the throttle. And control throttle (let it out and push it in) so your tires could hook. If your foots all the way in after the clutch is out, you'll just spin.

If you do this well, you'll still be up high in RPM and have less tire spin.

ok this is how i do it know, i keep the rpms at 1500, or maybe at 2000 rpms and drop the clutch. like plokivos said , control the throttle, release the gas pedal a little and then push it all the way. i really get a good launch this way; killing so many cars like this. thanks for the help guys.
