All the way down,
also when you are taking off a good way to tell if you are slipping the clutch is to check for and see if the revs jump, If you are at about 1k rpm and the revs goto 1.5k-2k rpm without you really moving you are burning the clutch (this is considering you are letting the clutch out and hitting the gas).

Is it better to dump the clutch vs. rev the engine?
