Default 2014 C7 Z51 launch control rom? Mine is 5100

Thought it was supposed to settle at 4K? Mine is 5K. Haven't drag raced in forever. Tried it a few times and it always is 5K. Doesn't hit he limiter.

Read one post that said it's 3800-5000 depending on temp and tire temp. It was 100 today.

Tested launch control a few times and it stabilizes at 5100 each time. Don't like it as the car bogs bad.

Had better results doing it the old fashioned way.

First I have heard of settling at that high an rpm definitely seems too high for a good launch. I would definitely think you would be better off not using launch control at 5100 rpms.

Will engage it when colder and see if it does a lower rpm. Had car in comp mode via track mode then 2 taps. Fast application of gas with wheel straight. Rpms jump and settle at 5100 steady every time today.

Only used it one time, tested a bunch to see what rpm it would settle at and always 5100.

I don’t know if the 2014s were different, but mine hovers at about 2500 rpm before launch. 5100 is way too high.
