Terry,
On my car I keep the rpm drop to around 2000 and the clutch lockup on launch no more than 0.9 seconds. .9 seconds is too loose, and is based on the input shaft moving till the engine and input shaft rpm are the same. A general rule has been .3 to .8 on lockup. If you start getting to .3 the clutch may drag the engine down way too much and then the engine struggles to recover. This is where data acquisition is money well spent and can help you maintain clutch maintenance and performance.
