The only way to launch is to rev up to 6500 RPM, let the clutch out till it starts to grab, floor the accelerator and hold it there and the rest of the launch is all clutch. Feather the clutch so that you keep the rpms above 6500 and the wheels don't spin.

A few of these launches and you wont have a clutch.
