How to launch twin disc

Got the Cusco twin disc and braided lines, but can't seem to launch it right...

did consistent 1.7-1.8's on the stock clutch, but the new one is quite a pain in the ***** to figure out...Anyone got tips for me?

you have to slip it. I've found out that you can't 7k RPM drop. It's slow vs. Single disc, i've seen it.

slip at 6000rpm. It could take it.

i have tried both ways on my exedy twin disc. slipping consistantly produces better 60 ft for me. my technique is to rev the car to 5000, let the clutch out to just before when i feel it pull. at the light quick slip it and go. always in the 1.7x's with the occassional 1.6x.

I've realized the difficulty of launching with a twin disc. Thats the reason why i'm planning to get rid of my HKS GD max for a RPS true carbon carbon clutch.
