Oh yea, that M5 is siick!

the launch control is there to make sure that shifts are perfectly timed to the speed at which the engine revs. basically its going to take the engine as close as mechanicly possible to redline to get the best time out if your car
also it holds revs at a a very good starting point for limited wheelspin and an efficient go, heeluv a lot of fun in the m3 but it is an extremely limited form of launch control because it holds the revs at 1800 and not the much better level which was used in europe which slips me at the moment
