Most high performance DSG tranny's have some kind of launch control. Ferrari does for example, but not in the US, which really sucks. Hopefully the Evo X will have a LC feature.

it will have to have lc in order to sell the car. Americans value 0-60 times more than anyone else, so without lc the evo will be much slower than 4.4-4.6 0-60.

Well if its like the one in M3s ( I had one)... you hold the right shift peddle on the steering wheel engaging first...press on gas all the way...rivs will build up to a certain RPM depending on the car (3000rpm for the M3)...then you let go of the shift peddle....the car does the job for you basicaly.
I just remembered how precise my launches were with it...it mad me look like a hero on track...LOL...when in fact it was the electronic nannies doin the job
Oh...one more thing...if you want a Burnout...you hold both peddles instead.
