At the Red light olympics? I usually take the clutch into consideration and put trust in the insane ethanol boost that starts after 2800rpm

Indeed: easy on the clutch and trust the boost! Has been succesful for me so far. (except that one time versus an Audi R8
)

Not sure I'd ever dare do a full bore standing start in the DS3, that wooly clutch will probably just explode...'10 DSport in Black/Carmen Red 'Daisy' - Traded back in

I didn't know it was possible to add a launch control system through software.

Its not a full launch system as it doesn't integrate with the ESP. More of a traffic light rpm limiter lolOriginally posted by marioiturri View Post
