I think there's a few people out there who have utilized a 2 step launch controller

Such as that available from N2MB

Dont think it's big in the US, bit the Racelogic traction control system generally gets good reviews.

Dallas Performance has used the Racelogic system on a number of big power cars. There are videos on YouTube showing blown Vipers etc. launching with and without it, and it does seem to tame wheel spin. I'm considering trying one if I can find a local (Georgia) shop willing to learn how to install it.

Cliff Notes answer: About $1500 for the unit and another $1500 (per Dallas Performance) to install.
