The reason you rev it up is so the motor will be in the powerband. And you dont just let the clutch out at 5k unless you have slicks or it will just blow the tires off. Instead what you do is slip the clutch aka not letting it out all the way you modulate the amount of grab the clutch is giving to get the car moving while not smoking the tires. this keeps the motor from bogging and the tires from breaking loose. All while keeping the car in the car in the power band.
