Launch Mode — If Equipped
This vehicle is equipped with a Launch Control
system that is designed to allow the driver to
achieve maximum vehicle acceleration in a
straight line. Launch Control is a form of traction
control that manages tire slip while launching
the vehicle. This feature is intended for use
during race events on a closed course where
consistent quarter mile and zero to sixty times
are desired. The system is not intended to
compensate for lack of driver experience or
familiarity with the race track. Use of this feature
in low traction (cold, wet, gravel, etc.) conditions
may results in excess wheel slip outside this
systems control resulting in an aborted launch.
NOTE:
Launch mode is not available within the first
500 miles of engine break-in.
Preconditions:
• Launch control should not be used on public
roads. Always check track conditions and the
surrounding area.
• Launch Control is not available for the first
500 miles of the vehicle's life.
• Launch Control should only be used when
the engine and transmission are at operating
temperature.
• Launch Control is intended to be used on dry,
paved road surfaces only. Use on slippery or
loose surfaces may cause damage to vehicle
components and is not recommended.
Automatic Transmission — If Equipped
Launch Control is only available when the fol-
lowing procedure is followed:
1. Push the LAUNCH button on the center
stack switch bank.
