Default Brake Boosting...

Ive never done this before, because i do not think its safe if im honest.


When i plant the throttle there is a little delay before it really picks up. Making it not as quick as it could be off the line. Someone suggested i brake boost. You basically brake hard with your left foot and plant the throttle with the right. Build up the revs and let go.

Now surely having 3k rpm holding on the brakes isnt gonna be good for the car / gearbox...

Did any A8's come with launch control ?.
