Launch Control
If equipped, Launch Control is
available within Competitive
Driving Mode and PTM to
allow high levels of vehicle
acceleration in a straight line.
Launch Control is a form of
traction control that manages
tire spin while launching the
vehicle. This feature is
intended for use during closed
course race events where
consistent zero to
60 and quarter mile times are
desirable.
Launch Control is only
available when the following
criteria are met:
Competitive Driving Mode is
selected or any of the PTM
modes are selected. The
traction off light comes on in
the instrument cluster and
the appropriate DIC
message displays.
The vehicle is not moving.
The steering wheel is
pointing straight.
Automatic Transmissions
The brake pedal is firmly
pressed to the floor,
equivalent to a panic brake
event.
The accelerator pedal is
rapidly applied to wide open
throttle. If the vehicle rolls
due to wide open throttle,
release the throttle, press
the brake pedal more firmly,
and reapply the accelerator
to wide open throttle.
