I somehow dont think you would go that route… The restrictions on YOU owning a car like that dont seem to jive… especially after you giving me all sorts of shit of my 3rd pedal disability ---

This thing makes BMW SMG look like absolute garbage. Flat shifting at 7k rpm and it’s probably better than Audi’s DSG box. My complaints about the fact that the car never should’ve shipped with launch control and that the Nurburgring times are bull shit still stand. ---

Haha, it’s a friend’s. I’m just taking care of it for a week while he is in Australia. I’ve driven it before but not for very many miles. I’m doing an exotics run with it Saturday night through NYC with Onyx. 🙂 ---

My complaints about the fact that **the car never should’ve shipped with launch control** and that the Nurburgring times are bull shit still stand. I don’t want to start an argument, but I do believe that the Launch Control was not really supposed to be an advertised feature. I agree though, if they didn’t want people using it, they should have completely disabled it. ---
