A video demonstration of how to use Launch Control
#23
excellent thanks. I had been searching youtube for a similar vid but they never really show the process inside the car.
What are peoples best times with launch control ? I've hit 3.5 just manually push the gas from a stand still (no brake-torque) and I was impressed there's no wheel spin. I'm used to my old hellcat so launching was difficult.
I know GM claims 2.95 0-60 w/ the Z07 pkg, what's best non-z07? Gotta be 3.0-3.2 range.. that aero kit on the z07 cant be helping that much for 0-60 I'm thinking.

FYI: The outside and inside videos are of a single run. So it gives you a view of what's happening inside the car then you can see what it looks like outside the car. Thanks to the better half for standing side the road to get the outside vid!!!

very helpful Bob thank you! I didn't realize you can select the mode "Track 2" after the display clears. I always hurry up and try to get it all in before the screen switches back to the speed reading.
