LAUNCH TECHNIQUE

Any recommendations on best launch technique? Traction control on sport or completely off? Hold revs against brake then feather throttle? Open to suggestions. Also, when in sport mode, I sometimes hit the rev limmiter on full throttle 1-2 shifts, pretty violent. Thoughts?

Thanks.
Leon

First Traction control on sport ( on 2 gear after 4000rpm to 5000 ) the best launch Because some times befor 4000rmp the Traction work

When completely off this is better on gear 1 try to change after 6000rpm or 6500rpm but you have to change faster

( My friend think the better launch for c63 on 2 gear )


I aways using the manual mode Traction control completely off

Try to use always manual mode and you have to know your car when the time to change the gear .
