Back years ago when I ran a stick in my car. The car was faster launching at high RPM. this was before all of the good clutch stuff and rev limiters we have now. I would leave at 9000 RPM and pull the shifter to second as quickly as possible. Then shift the remaining gears at 8000. The car liked a light flywheel 13 lb. Clutch was 1800 base as I remember with a six pad disc. Dead hook. I had 2 transmissions one 305 low and one with a 3.19 low. SS/I and SS/J. It was brutal on parts.
