I have started practicing my launch in my car...and here is what i have found.

If you follow what it says on the website here it says to rev to 3000 and drop the clutch. First off this is bad on the clutch cause I have already shattered one. Second it is bad on the drive shaft and tires obviously. Not only this, you spin your tires way too much and lose valuable seconds whether racing against the clock or a person. I have lost a many race using that technique. If you want to do a phat burnout then that is the way to go. Another way was to rev to 4000 and slip it then drop it. That is also severe on the clutch if you dont know how to do it right and even worse on the drive shaft. So i started practicing with lower RPM levels. I have found that reving to 2000 RPM quickly...instead of holding there...and then dropping the clutch is one of the best ways to do it. It still spins the tires (very little) but u get better traction, and isnt as harmful on the clutch. Another way is to start out in second if u are on flat ground. Our second gear gets up and goes.

I hope I answered anyones question about how to launch in a manual Eclipse. Try this and it should give you a much better hole shot.
