Clutch slip on launch?
"and unless you are burning the hell out of your clutch your clutch will be fully engaged at about 30ft. So you still have 30ft to accelerate in first gear and your POWER determines how quickly you cover that 30ft..."
Discuss. Does the clutch instantly fully engage, engage very soon, or slip for a period of almost 30ft when doing an RPM drop launch on slicks?
