Default Correct launching techniques

So i think their are afew people on here that could do with some tips and shit about launching our AWD cars, including myself. So i have swallowed my pride, asked the question and now hope that some of the more experienced drivers could help us out.

I have tried afew different ways. But none of them felt correct.
- riding the clutch, holding recs at 4k with tge handbrake up. Drip the hand brake release the clutch and floor the gas.
- Foot flat to the floor, when it gets to somewhere around 4k release the
Clutch
- Blip the gas so it hovers over 4k then release the clutch and floor the gas.

Now between all of these i have exprienced excessive burnt clutch smell, especially the first. I have never really had anyone show me so up until now it has just been trail and error. And i have a feeling going to shit something soon.

I should also mention i have a 6spd box, but would also like tips for those with 5spds
