To Launch or not to Launch.
#2
Never pop the clutch on awd or you can kiss your tranny good bye. If you baby it your gunna have a pretty sad 60ft time. Theirs an involved technique but i'll try to make it short and sweet. 1.Hold your revs between 3,500-4,500rpms. 2.Let the clutch out swiftly but do not drop it! 3.while the clutch reaches its friction point stomp on the gas. If you havent praticed that technique yet you should because its one that takes some practice to get it just right. but once you get it you should notice a huge improvement in 60ft and 1/4 times.

Blip the throttle by stepping on the accelerator and releasing it quickly to get the turbo spooling then slip the clutch . Don't dump it ! you'll end up getting a slower time and possibly break something . good luck .........

i would put it as heel-toe rev matching technique, but kinda backwards if you understand....
to me, it's kinda hard to transition from half throttle to hold the rev than go full throttle to launch, I would learn the timing of idle to turbo spool and slip the clutch at the right time for a smooth take off. 02cents
