Please tell me more Adrian E, as I didn't know the S5 had launch control. To me, it already has more than enough power to deal with the traffic light races you sometimes encounter. I've given it the onions from standstill but nothing more. I'd probably err on a similar side of caution as I don't want to grenade the DSG but not knowing HOW it's done is bugging me now. Can you enlighten me?
Cheers
