I can get off the line good if I leave SOFTLY at idle, make sure it's hooking, and ease into the gas down to WOT (this is usually around 3000-3500 revs by this point). Hooks good after that. I've tried other ways like slipping the clutch but I tend to overdo that and spin, and also launching lightly and then jamming the throttle, but I can break loose in 1st by doing that. Best thing to do is practice. If traction is a problem try some drag springs and control arms, and better tires (like drag radials). Good luck!
