Why is my launch control set at 5k?

I have had my 2014 1LE now for about 4 months. Hittin 7k on the odometer.
I have searched the forums, and I see that the launch control sets on most cars on here around 4k.
I tried it today for the first time. And yes it stays at an RPM but it sets just above 5k. Ummmm is this right? Why is so high, can I set this somewhere? I don't understand. I know not to just dump the clutch, but 5100 Rpm? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

5k is correct. If you let off and floor it again it will drop down to 4500 or 4k.

Sooooo I have the "option" so to speak, to launch at 5k when I first floor it, and 4-4500?
I'll have to wait for morning to try this... And then again, do I really want to launch at that high of rpm?

I will try it tomorrow to verify. It may have been 4,200 then letting off slightly and going back down goes to 3,500.

Me either!!!
I haven't really messed with the launch mode on my 14 LS3. But tempted to now because I'm curious and I don't care much for my neighbors either

Mine gets up to 5000, but then goes down to 4000ish.

Its useless anyways I got a better launch by sidestepping the clutch around 3500 w/o Launch control, and TCS off/Stab On and not in Comp Mode.
