Default My launch technique

Okay, so here's the thing, everybody I know says that I launch too high. 8grand, I have never had a problem with this, even on 20x8x14 mickey tompsons. thing is a couple weeks ago I ran my homies built LS, he ran a 15.2 I broke the car and ran a 15.4, by broke I mean the clutch didn't engage in third gear, obviously my 8 grand launch was blamed, so is this why the clutch did that, or is there another reason, maybe bad clutch.

20" slicks are for Jr dragsters, get some 23's or 22's at least!

Also, your post doesnt ask a question. Its more like. "hey look at my newb *** break a stock clutch because i straight dumped it and didnt preload, YAAAAAY"
