How to do launch control in A10?

[jamespmoran]

There is no launch control for the auto. You foot brake it.

I had a lunch on my lt1 camaro but i was making better in just foot braking.

It works for me

The line lock only locks the front brakes so you can do a burnout. If you are racing at an NHRA, or IHRA track any use of any type of line lock is illegal to use on the starting line.

I am curious as to how I can do launch control in a A10 DH. I have 870 miles and I do not have an option for launch control in track apps. I just curious on if I am missing something.

There is no launch control. The best launchs we've managed, is starting out in second gear and foot break it to 2000rpm.
We are seeing 1.6, 60' times and have run 10.90's@126

2 days ago I decided to try some 0-60 runs with my dragy and just hitting the gas in sport mode I got a 3.91 with a 1 ft rollout on my second run. I was getting quite a bit of tire spin. I bet if it hooked it would be closer to 3.5 to 3.6. I have minor mods. I removed the carbon from the intakes and installed a 3" catback exhaust.

put some wide tires on. i get exactly 0 wheelspin unless i launch with RPMs above 1500 or so. you should also use drag strip mode instead of sport for that kind of thing

I plan on trying track and dragstrip mode. I doubt i'll change the tires in an attempt to improve 0-60 times. zero wheelspin huh? I hate to call bs but I gotta say......

If running wide soft tires in hot weather, I can believe that.

Any issues with running that wide of a tire or any adjustments that you had to make?

when the rear suspension is highly compressed, it rubs slightly on the inside of the fender, but it's really superficial

Roll into it from idle..Keeps torque management happy and wont bog as bad.. or spin. These cars need a tire from the get go on the track. Don't risk yourself or Mustang without a set of stickies.

AdvanceTrac off (only time i will ever do that) with the window down and there's no squeaking or chirps

In all fairness you kind of rolled into that throttle.
