Launch control
I’ve been watching a lot of videos using launch control at Spring Mountain. Does everyone notice that short pause when you launch ? That has to cost you a couple of tenths at least in qtr mike times don’t you think. It’s not really instantaneous, I would think 60 ft times are like 2 sec. I have a c7 Z and it was the same thing and I don’t care what mode your in. Am I nit picking ?

We'll see soon enough. I would imagine drag times Brooks will get his hands on a broken in one rather quickly. Enough with the theoretical and hearsay.. show me the vbox and dragy videos.

I made the same observation when watching. I think it's likely that the slight delay that we seem to be seeing will cost you far less time than excessive wheel spin did on the C7 Z06/ZR1's.
