launch @ what RPM for best time?
Well I'm still pretty much of a newbie at MT, and I need to know what RPM I should launch my car at to go fastest.
it's a 97 Ls, if that helps any.

well it really depemds on what kind of take off your looking for.
your could all out smoke out, sklight peel, or the smooth take off. really its your own preference, i prefer the middle, that insures that you have some extra pull on the tires but not to much.
the rpm is not like a universal drop it also depends on how you drop the clutch, if you butter it you could get the same pull out of 3400 that you would of out off 2500 if dropped correctly.
my best addvice is to go in to a parking lot where you wont be bothered and get to know your car.

I'm usually able to easlily pull off 4.5k launches with very little wheelspin, sometimes(depending on conditions) even higher rpm launches are possible.
and yeah, practice somewhere where is safe and nobody bothers you. Some people like to rather slowly let out the clutch and let it slip, but I prefer to just dump it.
