learn your clutch. always had a hard time in my 350z until i started to feather the clutch. i've launched my 370 about 3 times now with the 1st one just dropping the clutch....the car went all over the place hopping lol. the 2nd time i took it to 2,300 and feathered the clutch and played with the throttle until i felt the car actually hook then smashed it. by feathering i mean as in when you accelerate don't just let the whole clutch out....ease it out while accelerating but also dont just punch it all the way, your RPMs should hold at around a certain number rather than bouncing around, until you feel the car on the ground then you punch it. hard to explain but that is the main picture.
