Launch Control Trouble
Hi everybody,
Here is my problem, every time I try a race start / Launch control, the process is successful up to the "Accelerate" screen. But when I do so, the launch is stopped and the screen read "Launch start Impossible", whatever I do.
Anyone has encountered this problem before?
Thank,

You need to mash the accelerator pedal to the floor. If you try to match the RPM's to the Launch RPM's the clutch will overheat and the launch will fail.
My guess,

Whaaoouu, I'll try to "mach" it next time, but I sure wasn't particularly slow at building rpm, but yeh, in the same time, not maching it.
I'll definitely try to be quicker on the pedal and report if that do the trick...
thank for the tip...

Follow up,
That was it, I wasn't quick enough on the throttle. I had never use a launch control before, and couldn't find a clear explanation of the process. Mercedes should make that last point very clear in the descriptif, accelerate is not enough...
