Quick (hehe) Launch control vid

Finally got around to testing launch control the other night.
Left the bloody SD card out of the GoPro, so mate had to film on phone - sorry its a bit jumpy. This was second launch and pretty bloody quick!!

So impressed at how this car hooks up traction and just goes!

Lol my wife was stating: That's slow, yours is faster.

She didn't know this was in MPH instead of KMH

Thanks for sharing, haven't tried it yet. If it wasn't there I wouldn't miss it ha. And first have to look it up in the manual how to...

Cheers

No more than usual... 9 months to couple of years. Enjoying it a lot, it's a great drive, but some times I miss a refined GT.

Yeah, the traction this car has is very impressive (including in the wet).
