Any more tips for us guys running a 7AT?

My rears are worn out but I'm gonna be trying to launch at about 2k. traction control off of course. Should I be shifting right at the rev limiter or a little sooner? This is my DD and I'm guessing launching & redline shifting is really bad for the tranny.
I've found that 1500 rpm is best for launching, but that will probably vary a bit based on track conditionsand your tires. Try and see which works vest for you. I try to shift right before redline.
