Don't drop the clutch anymore. You have a lot more HP and torque at the wheels now, so it's much easier to break the tires loose, as you found out.
Try slipping the clutch a little bit to get the car moving before going WOT.
You are not your job. You're not how much money you have in the bank. You're not the car you drive. You're not the contents of your wallet. You're not your fu**ing post count.

my best results came from feathering...but only slightly...rev to 4,000 and let the clutch come out most of the way, with a slight amount of slippage...try it a few times....but was able to pull a 2.26 60' time doing that...and getting the turbo to spool up real fast...had almost no wheelspin as well...its not tough to do...just have to "feel" it
