what do you guys typically launch at i have been playing around with a good launch rpm. if a launch above 5500rpm's i get what i think is wheel spin from 1st 2nd and some of 3rd a friend of mine said my clutch is slipping but i dont smell anything plus my rev warning lights up like a christmas tree maybe im wrong though. i launch at 5200(anything below 5k i bog really bad) rpms and it takes off like a rocket its an 07 sti with tbe and a ots cobb stage 2 map nothing special. also the car came with an aftermarket clutch (got it from dealership) guy that traded it in said it was a performance act clutch so it should have plenty of stick left nitto neogins with very good tread life are what tires i have on the car. i checked out some videos and im quite sure i have some wheel spin going on i thought that came into play when launching at stupid high rpms like 6k rpms not 5500rpms just confused
