Haven't had a chance to test it out yet - I generally baby my clutch, and don't have much use for street racing - however, it might be useful to know how to launch the BRZ.
What's a good RPM? ~2-3k like he suggests? |

The few times I did it to see how well they launch I was between 3 and 4K. Was getting a bit squirrely at the upper end but was manageable. If you want to try it find a nice long empty place with a good clean surface and start at low RPMs and work your way up.
