Wow, launch control works surprisingly well with the manual. Thanks for the great quality video. Any in car video?

We had in car video but the audio was ruined, when I popped off the clutch like a ninja, I hit my sterling silver keychain with the dragon on it and it made a loud annoying noise exaggerated by the camera's mic.

Thought that, as you had almost zero tire spin. Pretty cool!
I used to play with that button on my .2 Turbo S for launches, looking for higher G-force readings. It was inconclusive which was best.

The manual states that the TC should be on for launch control. I also have always launched previous pdk cars with it on and it was not intrusive.

I think I remember reading you were under 1000 miles so you shifted at an earlier RPM? Meaning you didn't run it to red line? Sounds great.

That was before doing a track day at Daytona and PBIR I'm over 1600 miles now. I don't remember, I revved it up, dumped the clutch and shifted where it felt good. Wasn't trying for 9k.
