Default Ha, I know, thats why I asked! I am def not launching like I need to be. I'm just weary of launching

and breaking something. I know I shouldn't be worried about much, but still.

How should I be attempting to launch? Ideal RPM, slip it still, or dump it?

Looking at the info it was obvious my start is the main problem.

How far should I run it RPM. Stock everything w/ 130k miles, so I don't like the red range..

Should I be hitting 60 in 2nd or 3rd? I hit it in third on both of my runs.

Default I think the risk of breaking something is minimal, though glazing your clutch is a definite...

...possibility - especially if it has 130k miles on it.

You say stock everything, but your sig says otherwise. Are you running a different car than what's in your sig?

IIRC, I hit 60 in 3rd in my A4 when running the 1/4mi and stretched 2nd when trying a 0-60 run.

Default Sorry, when I said stock I meant 130k untouched motor. Turbo is K04 w/. all the mods listed.

Yeah I see how that could easily be misinterpreted. The clutch has about 15k miles on it. No abuse really, I accelerate hard but always once the clutch is fully engaged and no launches (ha well accept for quasi ones today).

It should have plenty of grab but I don't want to f it up. Thoughts?

Default Ah, in that case, beat on it :-)

With a stock clutch, I was starting at around 3500 and feathering it. With your clutch, I bet you could do the same thing from 4500rpm. The key is to let it out fast enough that it doesn't slip a ton, and slowly enough that it doesn't bog. It's better for the clutch if you err on the side of bogging.
