Default Launching a stock sc300

How should I launch my sc with the traction control off? Sometimes the car picks up fast but when I just slam the gas pedal or try to launch it it takes longer to pick up... I guess I need boost am going to do my intake and exhaust soon. If this is in the wrong section and belongs in the main one can somebody move it for me thanks

Well what ive done is pull the ebrake and step on the brake. Rev as high as you can without the tire spinning and when its time to go drop ebrake let go of brake and step on the throttle all in one motion. Im auto so thats how i do it.

I launched my sc today with the traction turned off. It took some time to get up so i was pissed. And then later on i drove the car and punched it and i was impressed.
