I Resolved to master the technique, and focused on that specifically for a while, until I got it down. You can do it too!
It's not an issue in my GTI and I can crack 'em off smooth in that, the BRZ's gas pedal is a touch too high for me to use the same technique Trying to practice it on the street is just asking for trouble so I'll wait to try if the BRZ ever hits the track.

Any suggestions on technique with the BRZ's pedal layout?

Sorry to thread jack a bit!
