Nice run. 1st gear shifted way too early though.

Thanks! It was a long and often frustrating process, but finally figured out how to launch the M6 decently and consistently.

My setup:
- I installed an MSD 2 step rev limiter as I wasn't happy with OEM launch control etc.
- Had the OEM 4,000 RPM Neutral rev limiter removed via tune.
- 28" Drag Radials - 325/50/15 MT ET Street R for me as I did the 15" conversion, but I think you'd get similar results on a 17" wheel. 18 PSI of tire pressure.

My technique:
- Tour mode - very important as it allows for better weight transfer. You could do just the suspension, I set it to tour overall as it allows you to roll on the throttle more gently and not blow the tires off if needed
- Traction control off, left Stabilitrak on (so single button press)
- Set 2 step rev limiter to 4,000 RPM (or the highest RPM your tires/track/torque level allow)
- 2-4 second burnout
- While staged, floor it and let the 2 step work
- Pop the clucth. No slipping at all, just side step it

That’s awesome! I think a big thing making mine so hard to launch is the stock tune/torque management.

Yeah, it’s pretty much impossible to launch with the stock torque mgmt / tune. The few times I got it to hook, the computer would jump in and cut my nuts off.
