Narrative:
After previous aircraft lifted off we were cleared for takeoff. He was on same routing (epkee) with pretty good right turn after takeoff. As I rolled into 30 degrees of bank out of about 6;000 ft. His wake pushed us over to about 45 degrees of bank. I rolled back and continued on departure.
