He forgot how to do it

Trying to talk him into G-Force twin turbo's next, either that or he said he will chop it in for a 59 plate Aston Martin.

doesn't look like it worked TBH.. loads of wheel spin then nothing then a bit more wheelspin and so on...

Not a smooth, controlled launch that you would expect with a launch control system..

Are you getting launch control mixed up with traction control.

I'm not, maybe the driver is

the OP posted about Launch Control but it does look more like traction control doesn't it the way it spins then cuts the power..
