If your car is revving to 5k that is just the soft limiter in neutral, not launch control. LC holds the revs at 3500. You can get to it by either being in sport mode and pressing the traction button twice to engage competitive driving mode, or be in track mode and do the same thing, then switch to sport 1, 2 or race.

Launch control works pretty well on the street with the stock 1LE goodyears, not as well at a drag strip because it tends to wheel hop.

Pretty sure all the LC modes are 3500. But launch control can't be accessed from Touring mode. Only Sport mode w/ Competitive Driving traction mode on or in the PTM modes.
