ummm sounds like you threw a bunch of random info already found on the forum together since you say to launch in 2nd gear at 3500rpm then say to shift from 1st to second at 7k rpm...

just sayin...

OK.. What's your time? Like 60 ft, 1/4 and trap speed?? DTC on never worked for me...

I'm assuming this method is for the auto tranny only?

I wouldn't suspect that you would launch a manual in second gear as well, would you?
