I know of more than one 360 that had runway excursions due to P-factor.  I add power slowly until the rudder is effective using brakes if needed.  After that pour on the power and go.

An inquiry on L235/320 takeoff techniques -- not off the left side of the runway.
I would appreciate hearing all suggestions and comments from L235/320 pilots on how to counted the verys trong P-factor 'go-left' tendency on takeoff.
  So far I've avoided clipping the left runway lights, but the configuration's P-factor needs some kind of special attention... hopefully not requiring structural modification.
Thanks in advance,
