Most of what traction is available has to do with track prep and how much traction compound is applied to the racing surface. Adjust accordingly depending upon your results. Try it in M with no paddles.
I've been wondering what the best launch technique is until i get DRs. It's nice to finally get a clear, detailed explanation. From my experience (what little it is so far), this seems like a good technique for the stock tires
