If I am not mistaken, there should be minimal wheels spin using Launch control. Isn't that part of the program?

wee bit of wheelspin is optimum for acceleration. every launch will differ depending on tires, ground condition but ultimately a bit of spin is the way to get the most out of the car time and time again. If programmed for no wheelspin the 0-60 times would be much slower.

A bit of wheelspin gets instant heat into the tyres which improves the launch time

A little wheel spin is always better then a bog off the line.

Wheelspin sounds like a good problem to have...especially in a AWD car!
