GT2 Launch control tried

tried the launch control on my GT2 and it is great. perfect starts off the line....even if there was no actual line

in addition, i read in some porsche literature, that it actually puts less load on the clutch than high rpm starts in cars without launch control as it modulates the power.

the sensation was great. some little wheel hop and then the slingshot kicks in.

I didn't realize it has a launch control. That must be fun.

i tried it yesterday, always wanted to feel what it was like to do 0 to 100 kph in under 4 seconds. i pity those who take on this car at a set of traffic lights

Are you planning on using launch control frequently?
Do you worry about the wheel hop?

God I hope so, I messed up a launch today in an autox and I could have used it.
