Seriously...Turn off TCS....Put left foot on Brake....Bring RPM's up to about 2500.....Then as you let off the brake (fast) with your left foot, floor it with the right (at the same time).
Called a Power Brake. Gets good launches with minimal wheel spin.

Have you guys ever tried this "powerbrake" trick but with the E-brake instead of the foot brake? The e-brake is pretty weak, so maybe it won't work too well, but I don't think it cuts power when the E-brake is on.
In my stick on steep hills I'll sometimes need to use the e-brake to help keep the car from rolling backwards when I first start off. Haven't noticed any power weirdness in that situation.
-D'oh!

I'll have to check it out though. For me it would just be easier to pull the fuse out.
