yes, of course auto trans has launch control. Read your manual (good manual for the price); 9-45 [there are several other threads on the subject, but few apparently have read it since many dont even know if the auto has it]--see partial below[auto has to be in track mode; vs. econ, weather, tour, sport, unless mag ride--maybe, unclear]:
Launch Control (Track
Mode Only)
A Launch Control feature is
available, within Competitive Driving
Mode (except Z51 with Magnetic
Selective Ride Control) or
Performance Traction Management
(Z51 with Magnetic Selective Ride
Control), on all vehicles to allow the
driver to achieve high levels of
vehicle acceleration in a straight
line. Launch Control is a form of
traction control that manages tire
spin while launching the vehicle.
This feature is intended for use
during closed course race events
where consistent zero to
60 and quarter mile times are
desirable.
Launch Control is only available
when the following criteria are met:
. Competitive Driving Mode is
selected (except Z51 with
Magnetic Selective Ride Control)
or any of the Performance
Traction Management modes
are selected (Z51 with Magnetic
Selective Ride Control). The
TCS light comes on the
instrument panel and the
appropriate DIC message
displays.

Thanks for the "read the manual advice"

For the M7 it's a bit different. Steering wheel straight, trans in first, clutch to fhe floor and mash the throttle to the floor FAST. Computer catches the RPM and holds it near 3000. Slip your foot off the clutch pedal to the left, computer again applies as much throttle as the rear tires can take without spin and you are off. if you want a real rhrill, do that one in an M7 Z06!
