with good sticky tires you can launch higher than that. ideally you want to launch high enough so that when your tires hook up you're already in vtec. the good part of your powerband.

Here at LACR, I cannot launch any higher than 3500rpm cause I will stay at the line hopping and spinning. I launch at 3-3300rpm for a 15.2 E.T.

You can launch higher than that. I launch from 5.5.
