Attention Tuners - Race Start

How hard would it be to remove all the silly timer delays that abort Race Start?
Even better, program a simple race start? Porsche has it - press brake and hold, press gas, let go brake. Done.
Remove all the "Turn to RS, paddle up" stuff.
Maybe, always have the Race Start bit "on" and as long as people don't drive with two feet it will only activate when needed.
Hmm.
I'd like that. Just leave it on.

Bro.

this has been done

tcu tune fixed all this .. that's how we are getting 2.6 0-60's and 10.7 1/4's and 1.6 60ft's

all I do now is brake and slam gas to 2000 rpms and let go

read up!! You're living in the past

TCU tune + brake torque is undoubtedly better in performance but I do really enjoy the BAP-BAP-BAP-BAP of race start. =]
