LOL.

I avoid sport mode like the plaque. Car is out of warranty.

And steering/suspension settings

sport + also gives your slip with the DSC which is a must have with high Lateral g forces.

I have break in service coming. So, to launch the car you need to be in sport + in S3? Is that right? If you launch in manual I assume shifting takes over?

Thanks

That’s correct. Also DSC should be OFF and it will shift up in S3 during launch control

Warning: it NEVER gets boring!

Launched mine this evening in a straight line with a friend in the car. 0-135 in under 10 secs.

His comment after he stopped swearing: “That is categorically THE fastest car I have ever been in”.

Share the love ❤️🥰
