Message car. On an auto you preload the drive line and the tires start preloading, but on a manual you can't preload the drive line, you just snap the tires from a high RPM; you can slip the clutch and aid the tires in grabbing, but not for long because you will fry it, fast.

I ran as low as 6 psi in the tires. I take it you have an auto; since, you don't know very much about a manual car?

If I were to start spraying I could launch at a lot lower rpm and have the nos make up for the lack of bottom end torque in a turbo car, thus not snapping the tire from such a high rpm. I hope that makes sense, Octavian.
