hold it on the floor and dump the clutch....
in all honesty its alot fo trial and error, lots of stuff you gotta take into consideration... track prep, how good of a clutch you have, tire pressures ect...
PRACTICE, and if you wanna know what your cars gonna run, run it, dont ask people...

Keep your revs between 5,000-6000 rpms. Preload your clutch and sidestep your foot rather than just dumping the clutch. Practice on getting off the line without bogging. Soon it will become a feel and you should be pulling the times you want.

or dyno tune the car and see where it stops making power before determining where its "best" to shift
