GT2 RS Question

Does the GT2RS have launch control?

F yes. I did my car with 10 miles on the ODO. Rev limiter in first is below the regular redline. Reason being, the minute you side step the clutch, you must cover the clutch back to shift to second, and by then the car would be beyond first gear. A person cannot move fast enough. I know this sounds crazy, but it's true.

This car has 620 HP under your foot 100% of the time. Porsche was giddy about that.

Well, we can tune these turbo's to be face distorting, but the 2 RS is just that right out of the box. It pulls non stop from first to sixth. When I did launch, I was at 100 mph in 6 seconds my guess. I browned my pants.

JC, so it's true I don't have to run mine in? That's what my dealer told me. I'm sure I would need to bed the brakes in at least?

Mike, these cars are made to race from day 1. Mile 1. I've never waited. They stress that the motor is up to temperature, then boom.
Now, protocol states you must keep it under 4k for a while and never go to redline for a couple thousand miles. Blah. I asked important people. They smiled and said drive the car.
