Launch Control

Does anyone think the Launch control is remotely useful on street tires such as the stock PSS? I just get wheelspin and 99% of the time the car typically doesn't go anywhere.

You can dial down the rpm with the cruise control toggle so wheel spin is reduced.

Lowered RPM to lowest 2500... tires warm at over 100F, weather outside 86F... near perfect surface on main road... can still confirm launch control is utter garbage.

Not sure what to say, its likely a tire issue at that point.
