Press the brake all the way down. Put the car in S+. Turn the traction into SPORT. Switch the knob to RS. Press the Right Paddle to confirm. While your foot is on the brake, Press down on the gas. Release the Brake and hold on!

I'm still in my break-in period and cannot wait to play with this feature ... but honestly speaking, when do you folks use it? Striaghtaways? When there's a hot chick (or dood) at the stop light next to you? When you have a hot chick (or dood) in your passenger seat?
And finally, at what point do i let off the gas once I'm off the line?

When you want to slow down?

hahaha +1
Straight line would be ideal! Ive done it off the light and just on open roads. With friends or girls in the passenger seat (most girls scream! lol) as well as beside some riced out cars. I still find at times I can launch the car better, I mostly do it for the revs, it tends to make the other drivers around nervous with the noise. I have used it quite a bit, and with my winters going on I had a chance to see my rears after 7500kms... the center tread was pretty much bald! New tires in the spring!
Have you found if you leave your foot on the gas too long it cancels? It happened to me once I haven't let it get to that point again.

2012 C63 AMG Sedan
Thanks guys, I tried it in the dealers c63 
it was wicked, but it was snowing so ground was wet and slippery. Does using this void the warranty like in Porsche (sorry I'm mentioning them in here) when you use launch control it voids the warranty. I'm trying to choose between c63 or gt3 rs 4.0

I'm trying to choose between c63 or gt3 rs 4.0Makes perfect sense! Both cars are not only in the same performance category, but also in the same price bracket ... and a GT3 RS 4.0 is only available in a 6 speed manual, not with PDK.

Also the GT3 RS 4.0 is double the price of our C63s.
If I had to choose.... GT3 all the way!!!

Yes the Rs is a six speed and I know it different in alot of ways, but I'm looking at the c63 because with the money I have to pay for the rs I could buy 2 3/4 of a c63 so that why we are looking at that. What do you guys think for c63, coupe or sedan. I like the look of the sedan but what do you think?

You sure do ask a lot of silly questions don't you?
If you truly have/had the money for a GT3 RS then you wouldn't be asking such a question. It's a no-brainer.

Yes he does, has the money to buy RS 4.0 but thinks C63 is equivalent? Probably a phantom, an alien lifeform or from another multiverse visiting to gather data, or the past.
