What is the best way to launch? I was wondering what the best way to launch my stock 2000 SS A4 was. I haven't had the opprotunity for any real races yet (only a stock Prelude and a Z3, and I'm not even sure the Z was giving it 100%), but if any other races come up, I would like to get the best launch possible. I would appreciate any info.

I've never raced my car in anything but OD.
