With lightened Flywheels, how do you launch at the track? Also ran SE-R spec V

Well i've been to the track 3 times now and i still cannot get into the 2.3 60' times. My best to date is like a 2.433. I've dropped the tired pressure down to 22psi, i've tried to feather the clutch i've tried to just dump it and let the wheels spin abit. Everytime i think i take off better i just end up the same. My best time so far is a 15.7, and Friday at the track my first run i ran a 15.753, then the rest were 15.9's. I talked to a friend at the track and he said just hold my revs at 2 grand under what i shift at, so at about 4 grand then just ride the clutch until it catches good then floor it. But i got taken in the first round of eliminations. In which i actually won.
He dialed in at 15.9 and ran a 16.197.... I dialed in at 15.7 and ran a 15.931.
I beat him by like .05 something or other. So i dunno if it's the computers fault or what? how does that usually work. it was against a Izuzu Impluse Intercooled Turbo, he had boost gauges and all kinds of stuff. Also ran a 2002 Sentra SE-R spec V, He ran a 16.1 to my 15.9, he was quicker off the line but i was faster in the top end but he was never infront of me. I got it on video i may post if some1 hosts it, but it's huge, and the camera's batteries were going dead so it wouldn't zoom in just get blurry, so my friend filming was cussing at the camera through like the whole race.
