Default Launching with Quattro

I cant seem to get it down. When you find yourself "accelerating quickly from a stop" how do you do it? I have tried holding the RPMs then slowly letting off the clutch, but I dont know if there is a better way to do it. I am always slow off the line because it takes me forever to get out of the hole. I figured with AWD I would shoot right out. I must not be doing something correctly.

Are you chipped? If you dont want to glaze your clutch, rev to i think 2700rpm and let out. Thats what audi says so you ruin your clutch. If you have some ***** in your car you can start different ways.
