okay guys first off don't take this the wrong way but I drag race competitively, I have an NHRA competition license and i have been doing it for close to 15 years...

GM putting a "launch control" in these cars was dumb IMO. I know it's there but dumping your clutch at 4,000 rpm's is just plain asking for trouble even without sticky tires.. You are going to get better acceleration slipping the clutch than straight dumping it until you get some serious hardware underneath it and a much better clutch. People are going to be frying clutches left and right. Are clutches warrantied items? Last time i checked they werent cause they are wear/tear items.....

honestly stop using that stupid crap. I GUARANTEE GM will not include the launch control for the 2011 camaro cause it's gonna cost them more money in the long run fixing broke cars....
