when i launch mine, i kinda ride the clutch so to speak. rev it up to like 2 and let the clutch out slowly to point where you take off and go without spinning the tires cause the clutch hasn't engaged enough to put all the power down. Work on it and you'll get could i promise, it took me like a month before i got it down and even now its kinda hard to do right

is it weird that i launch at like 4000 -4200. i dont slip the clutch that much and i also have zero tire spin. also what kind of 60's are you getting cause i think it would bog pretty bad lunching at 1500
