RE: Good Launch?
I cant launch anything above 2 or im just sideways, it all depends on your power. Just be sure you do a burnout, or warm ur tires up before you try and race. It makes a world of difference when being able to grip up.

With a stock 5.0 5 spd, 2500 rpm and letting the clutch out slow and lifting the throttle some to bog the motor will give you a very decent launch. If you have more power and taller gears, you may want to experiment a little.

RE: Good Launch?
to launch with an auto, hold the gas and brake, only rev it high enough to just before the tires will spin, then let go of the brake when your ready to go.
I launched at 3500 last year with 235/60/15 street tires.
1.9 60ft.
it also depends on what gear ratio you have.
