Actually, the best way Ive found is to tach up to 2 grand before you launch and then slip the clutch just enough to get you to roll. At the same time your also punching it to WOT and fully dumping the clutch at around 3000 RPMs. This gets better acceleration than just dumping in at 3000 RPMs. For first gear wrap it out to 6700 RPMs then quick shift to second. By quickly punching the clutch the right about of RPM drop should leave you at about 3200 to 3500 RPMs. Its important to remember that you should not be yanking as hard on the shifter as your stomping the clutch. Ive not bent the clutch pedal on mine so I think it can handle a little abuse. Then wrap out second gear to around 6500 RPMs...The reason for this is to keep the engine within its power band. Then quick shift to third...and check the rear view for the new celica you just dusted..
