I don't understand what people have against launch control...

Name of the track: Capitol Raceway. Crofton, MD

Weather conditions: DA: 450, 65F, 94%, 30.22in

42psi front/ 26psi rear
Track mode, Competitive Driving Mode w/Touring suspension locked on
Avoided water box, 2-3sec burnout, avoided typical tire 'path' used by most drivers (first time trying this hoping to get more grip), staged early, activated launch control, left on 3rd light.

As I've said before, using launch control with my car gets me my fastest times. Maybe it's my inexperience, or maybe I'm just not that good...but it definitely seems to help me. When it gets cooler I plan to take off all the nannies and see what I can do. Until then, I got my fastest time last night
