The easiest way to launch the 370 is to hold it around 2500 rpms, let the clutch out halfway until you grip, then floor it. I in no way, condone street racing, save that shyt for the strip.
Strip FTW.

And yes, you do shock the transmission and rear end pretty badly. If you run into any wheel hop you need to be careful because that's cause to snap an axle or otherwise **** **** up. If you're running sticky tires that constant bite-slip-bite-slip-bite is going to leave parts all over the track.
