    When starting out from a standstill, the car will "slip" the clutch, meaning it isn't fully engaged, up to about 2-2200 RPM.

    Maybe it's my throttle technique... I guess if I just hit the gas rather an easing it on, the slippage doesn't seem as prolonged.

    When starting from stopped, the 360 F1 system does a remarkably efficient job of slipping the clutch until a very smooth transition to full engagement is achieved. The point of full engagement does not depend on any single factor (like RPM or mph) but a complex dynamic balance of those and more (e.g., gas peddle throw). Bottom line is that full clutch bite should be apparent in approximately 1 car length, two at most. If you’re consistently taking more than a single car length for full clutch bite, something is wrong either with the car or with your throttle technique. Here’s a recent thread talking about F1 technique and clutch life:
