You should maintain your forward lean during the acceleration phase and then move to a more upright position to maintain top speed.

sprinting is not my area of expertise, but i remember watching a thraining program with Maurice Green, and he divided his races up into 3 phases.
Start Phase, (power, power, POWER) leaning forward
Acceleration Phase (Increase stride length + become upright)
Deceleration Phase (mentaining of speed)

in 100m sprint, i was taught to maintain leaning position for 60m, but it varires doesn;t it ?
whether the person's start off p[ahse is longer or shorter
and think leaning hleps to reduce the 'wind block' (not srue aobutt he exact term)...
these are very tactical things
