haha ... yeah Dev .. u got me .. no excuses ... i didnt get the best launch .. but even if i did .. i didnt think it would make much more a difference... Jesus had me by a 1/4 car the whole time ...and i thought u had me by 1 car length ..since i was right on ur tail when u merged back.. good times .. we should race again!

haha bro.. i was just messin with you .. obviously at no point i thought my car was faster than urs.. I knew u were faster.. just wanted to know how much faster .. i guess i got my answer... this brings me to anotehr questions .. yesterday i turned VDC off...and i was tryin to launch .... but it felt like vdc was kickin back in ..and then again ... when i started swervin behind u.... when u started braking .. it kicked in again ... so even tho i turned it off.. it was ON? ..cuz i launched at 2k rpm ..and it felt slow when i launched! .. usually it doesnt.. it has been doing that lately....

You must have had a decent launch because Jesus was only a 1/4 car ahead of you.....which is typical for the 2 of you, or so the stories go. I actually over reved 1st bounced the limiter...then shifted...I think I could have pulled a lil more from you, but bad shift on my part.

oh really?.. i usually have the lead on Jesus off the line .. most of the time ..when i launch right...and then he catches up ..and beats me..since he has more high end .... but i think there is a problem with the VDC sensor... i tried launching twice on the way home ..and i couldnt spin my tires..and the VDC wouldnt kick in... when i had it turned off..

I believe that VDC is still active even when turned off, but not sure how sensitive they are and would take serious spin before triggering. I lost traction in the rain with it off and no assist was provided. if you tires didn't spin, there's no way VDC would be triggered.

How do have a bad launch in an automatic? Don't you just press the gas all the way down?
