A question of technique?

[Danattheopticians]

Ok, so I'm just wondering,what is the quickest way off the line? Without mods, better tyres etc. I know that you need to avoid wheel spin but do you: A, Hold the clutch on it's bite point at about 2000 rpm, then get the car moving and feed the power in and then foot hard do wn and change up just before rev limit. B: Build the revs to about 4000 and let clutch out quick and then go? C: Some other way?
Don't worry I'm not about to go out and try to race everything off the lights but if a cocky little s**t in some hot hatch wants to wind me up the wrong way I will show him a 16 year old sports car can still cut it! Even in my bulk standard 400! The other reason is just interest.

And change up at 5200/5500 rpm, not 6000. Max torque is around 3750 rpm, but max BHP is around 5250 - 5500 rpm So when you drop the clutch back in you want to be at say 4000 rpm in the higher gear.

Torque and BHP graph - apologies if it's sideways. BHP is the curve that peaks just after they cross.

Is it a myth then to change just before the limiter?
Will the revs after the change not have dropped too low?
How do road testers do it to give quoted 0 - 60 times then?
I know it's very unlikely for me to be able to replicate the quoted 4.8 sec in mine with me driving and on ordinary road surfaces.
