I would have to say your friend would be right about the 2-3k rpm but don't pop the clutch. Find the friction point in the car (point in the clutch where you start moving) And rest the clutch just before it, and when you want to go let out the clutch at a moderate speed, not too fast but not too slow. A little wheel spin is not a bad thing. If you can warm the tires up. Also When starting at the "tree" you should go at the last yellow lights, it will get you close to a 500 start. (500 start is perfect)

When the HP is 700 you would usually warm up the sliks and then you'll stick to the ground.

The best thing is to warm up the tires via brake stand for rear wheel drive cars. Or for the front wheel drive cars reverse, forward, e-brake
