Depends on how hard you want to be on your drivetrain. John Shepard admits that he sacrifices some 60' time by letting the clutch out instead of sidestepping it to save his transmission. I try to do the same thing. Personally, I'd rather sacrifice a tenth or so in the 60' if it means my transmission is going to stay together longer.

I do the same as Nate, I just bring my foot straight up on the clutch. Let's it slip a little but still launches hard. 60 foots are in the 1.7's, that's good enough for me if I don't break any parts.
