Before the gate drops

What gear does everyone start a MX race in? I'm not sure if I should use first or second.

Before I got my Yosh full system, a 2nd gear start would bog like crazy. I had to clutch it alot.

But now with the pipe, some controlled throttle and clutch makes 2nd gear starts a snap.

I try to stay out of the middle RPMs because the LTR has too mellow of a mid, so Im usually up around the rev limiter to keep the power up.
See what wheel speed does for you off of a cement starting gate.
