Launch Technique so tach drop to max torque RPM?

Is this correct?

"...you should rev up to where (being at the egde of engaging the clutch) once you drop the clutch if falls to your max torque RPM..."

our cars stock MAX TORQUE is 205@4000 rpm ...does this means i have to be all the way up say 5000 rpm holding steady till green so when i go and tach drops it falls around 4K ???? *confused*



edit: i think i read it as a technique for RWD... oops my bad

I guess is not correct given the amount of feedback received.

Um,

1) You would just burn you're clutch doing that,
2) OR burn all of you're remaining good tread away.

Get a dyno to get analysis of your true powerband.

Read the 1/4 mile forum, most go between 1.8k-3k, "feathering" the clutch ... Spend some time there, it should help.

I tach it up to about 2,500rpm and quickly let it out without chirping to get the car rolling and split second later I basically let it out all the way and go WOT. I guess I can describe it as doing a rolling dump clutch. It helped me get a 2.2-2.3 60ft times all day on my last track day.
