Sounds like a load of chit..... at least, has nothing to do with preloading any drivetrain component, since you're not putting any load on it initially.

The only thing you're doing is not putting a shock load onto the drivetrain, which will be several orders greater than the 'normal' load you'd put on it, even in track/autox conditions.

i think he is referring to shock load. the load on the drivetrain will be the same wether you dump the clutch at 7k or slip the clutch, but the initial shock load will be greatly reduced if you slip it.
