I did the same thing, few days ago. I figured brake boosting did pretty much the same thing. Man, was I wrong. Launch control is unbelievable.

- The car needs to be driven a certain amount of time, temps in range etc. - You should not have to put it in second before engaging launch control, it does that automatically. This could be why it's not working all the time for you.

I was trying to launch for the first time today and got it to go two times out of maybe six attempts. The four times it didn't go my tires just spun when I had the brake in.
Is there any way to check if I'm in D or S for the shifting settings? |

Bumping this. Just tried launch control for the first time tonight on an empty rural road. I almost passed out. Got the total tunnel vision blood rushing out of my head feeling. Is that normal or am I just too sensitive? Honestly it scared the shit out of me. Insane car.

It’s been discussed a lot. And I am just repeating what I read and XHP claims. The claim is that ZF8 limited to 50 super hard luanches. After that supposedly it won’t shift as hard even though LC is active. I have no proof of any of this but if you search the topic it’s discussed a lot.

I’d bet I’m north of 100 by now. I have 79 saved in dragy, many others not recorded or deleted. Still hauling ass. Wheelspin is the bigger problem

It’s the tires. I have times earlier than these that were slower in the 3’s. Roll of the dice whether it hooks or not these days. Been waiting for my new wheels since March to put the Nittos on, now Apex is saying late June will be happy to make you a nice little clip when the day finally comes

Second question. Does launch control work 100% of the time you try it? Mine doesn’t. It’s been explained to me if certain temperature parameters aren’t met it won’t launch. Of course no one can tell me what those parameters are. |
