Sweet car. You should be able to get a much better time. It has launch control right?

mmmm....... M5..... also, i doubt you have the 'real', F1 style, launch control as it would probably rev up to 6k or so. Like the M3s in europe got it with the SMG, but the US market did not due to liability issues. You have to go through a little sequence with the paddle shifters or something (sort of like the old nintendo cheat codes) to enable launch control. You were still limited to 10 launches on the european cars because it would destroy the clutch though.
