ABSTRACT:
A launch control for a vehicle drive line (10) including a selectively engaged clutch (14) and an electronically controlled engine (12). Throttle position (THL) is sensed to determine a target engine speed (ES.sub.T), the engine is commanded to achieve the target engine speed, and the clutch is engaged as a function (82) of sensed engine speed (ES), known maximum torque engine speed (84), and the known maximum engine torque (80) at the sensed engine speed.
