Too bad they don't work well at the track due to no launch control. Upper 12's with 124 traps.

Launch control is called left foot braking on an auto.

Unfortunately there is a limit in one of the modules on the car which limits how long you can LFB for before it drops the throttle. Should still be enough to build up some boost off the line, though.

LFB results in only two things, a slight increase in rpm followed by a breaking loose of both rear tires. It works, but doesn't really help to launch quickly, but damn does it give them a show.

Its also great for burning down your old Primacy's though.
