Mine being VIN 25261 can't help but to wonder where the 'fix' started. Never tried LC because of this, but haven't been shy about burnouts in the 7 second mode.

I'd be a little concerned myself being that close to the mark.

My last 6 of my VIN is 182065.....does that mean I'm in the 82K range and thus well after this fix cutoff?

That is my understanding.. but, that doesn't mean you won't snap your axles though..

Thankfully, my Maggy came with 1400HP axles... Now I just worry about my center section, drive shaft, clutch and transmission as a whole.

Just go raise hell. Then WHEN something does break. Call Frank at DSS he will hook you up with parts and axles that don't. LOL

No, launch control is pressing the button twice. Then Hold clutch and gas to floor and release clutch. The TC will limit the wheel spin (not eliminate it) to maximize the launch.

Thinking that there should be a way to adjust the factory two-step (which is activated when holding the clutch, with or without LC enabled). That would serve to address the issue of too much power to launch with this method.
