I tried this for the first time yesterday (finally got those pesky break in miles taken care of!) and there was a LOT of wheel spin. Is our system like others in that it has to "learn" from a few launches to get the best hook up?

How is the wheel spin when you start off? Does the rear end brake loose or is it a straight shot?

Interesting. If you had to track it using Launch Control you would keep the traction in Sport + or off?

I also experience a significant amount of wheel while in race mode. Wondering what the best combo, race or sport mode and if full throttle is necessary in trying to achieve the fastest/most efficient start. Thoughts?
