Does using launch control affect the car in any bad way if you use it a lot?

I just know on other cars it messes up the transmission and wears it quicker.

Wondering if anything similar on this car

I'm sure it wears out the clutch faster, but that's normal wear and tear... just replace clutch when it's time -- no biggie.

I'm sure it also causes a little more strain on the transmission, but it was built for such abuse, so I wouldn't sweat it.

Whatever the cost for the clutch it is worth every penny.
