I'm having the exact same problem and cant figure out what it might be. When you want to launch from a dig as soon as I let the clutch go it pops hard then never does it again. Then if im goin from a roll and punch it hard in 1st and when i go to 2nd it will pop once and every other gear and normal driving its fine I never hear it again. I just put the ms4 in mine and still have stock gearing so I was curious if i could remedy the situation with a gear swap? I'm glad you posted this I would like some more insight as well.
