launching with 12 bolt and et radials?

i posted this over on tech and didn't get much of a respons, i was hoping you guys would have more insight.



--i've got a 2000 formula, mostly stock. mti lid, no catback, mcleod twin. i went 13.0 at 108 with a full tank. 1.99 60' it was my first week with the car and i was launching by slipping the clutch to prevent wheelspin. tires were 275/40/17 raptors.

i just bought a 99 formula with a moser 12 bolt with 4.10s. M6 with Z06 clutch. its got full boltons. i'm just wondering how i should be launching this car? i've got a set of nitto 555r and mt et street radials, both in 275/40/17. i know i can be much more aggressive, i just don't want to ruin the clutch or break the rear(if possible)

i go to atco raceway in nj. which is normally a very well prepped track. what rpms should i be launching at? should i preload? dump, release or slip the clutch?

thanks for any advice guys
