In the STI i used to blip to 5500- 6000 and just very quickly slip the clutch, but not quite as quick as side stepping. I found personally that with blipping i could more accurately target that rpm range as opposed to flooring. Used to get 1.7- 1.8 60' times with stock STI at the bogan community events held on Wednesdays at Kwinana..
Did you load the clutch slightly just before you launched it? Or was it just blip then clutch put from the floor.
