Use "TS" mode for drive in manual mode, handling the shifting by the steering paddles.
In "TS" the shifting is manual. When the engine reaches rpm limit (6800 rpm) the power is limited.
Downshifting is protected preventing the engine from overrevs. Shift demand will be active for
one second.

Standing start procedures

There are two ways to manage the standing starts, manual or automatic procedures.
"LCS" LAUNCH CONTROL SYSTEM -AUTOMATIC-
LCS allows you to perform a semiautomatic car launching. This system is automatically activated if wheels
are absolutely stopped and brake pedal is pressed.
Launching time after brake signal pedal off:
Process:
1.
After the grid formation lap, stop completely the car on the grid line pushing the brake pedal.
Gear lever has to be in "S" or "TS" mode. If this mode was already in during formation lap, will
2.
not be necessary move the gear lever.
3.
Push gas pedal flat out. Engine will limit at 4200 rpm approximately.
4.
Release the brake pedal and car will be launched. Driver has to control the wheel spin with the
gas pedal.
Summarizing: Arriving from the formation lap driving in "S" or "TS stops the car on the grid line
pressing the brake pedal. Push the foot throttle flat out (4200rpm) and release the brake pedal
when you decide (max time 6 sec flat out).
Control the wheel spin releasing the gas pedal and enjoy.
Notes:
To start in "S" is necessary to release a little bit the gas pedal from full to disable the launch
system. After this, using the "S" mode, up shift is automatic.
Is possible to use the Launch Control System controlling the rpm. Advisable no bellow of 3500
rpm.
The system needs brake pressure >10 bar. Push the brake pedal clearly.
With Red starting lights: If you release just a little bit the brake pedal in any moment of the system
process will understand that launch is done and the clutch will load irreversibly.
MANUAL SYSTEM
It's possible to carry out a manual standing start with the same success.
Process:
1.
After the grid formation lap, stop completely the car on the grid line.
2.
Push the brake pedal (Brake press >5 bar)
Gear lever has to be in "S" or "TS" mode. If this mode was already in, it's not necessary move
3.
the gear lever.
4.
Release the brake pedal while you press down the gas pedal.
Note:
It's also possible to put load at the engine accelerating a little bit while you are braking. Take care
with the time you are loading the engine because the clutches take temperature very fast and
after a certain limit the clutch launch is coming slow. Recommendation not more than 3
seconds.
