It's unfortunate that you're having trouble with your car. Are you sure your dealer isn't part of the problem (i.e. causing problems while fixing problems)? I guess I kind of feel like the cars are generally reliable for a performance vehicle, but I don't have the data to back that up.

Anyway, the launch control topic runs a little deeper than simply how to use launch control. There are a lot of people struggling with launching the M6 cars, especially the M6 ZL1.

I've ran lots of 1/4 mile passes with my ZL1, and my PB 1/4 mile time is slower than what you have quoted in your signature for the 2SS. Many other people are having the same problem which is why the topic is so popular. Whether you compare the 6th Gen M6 ZL1 to an M6 SS, A8 SS, or the A10 ZL1; the time/horsepower discrepancies simply don't add up... Something is wrong.
