Default Launching in 2nd with a Boosted Car

Anyone give this a try? Since the Turbo kit 1st gear is way to short. I have a drag clutch in the car that should be able to take the abuse and I think this would lead to lower trap times. Has anyone gave it a shot? I know on a NA car you pretty much need the 1st gear to help get you started, but it seems with boost this car pulls 2nd so well (even from right around 0mph).

I know with a stock clutch you would be asking for trouble, but this one I have is pretty stout.
