@@AleK0451 okay so…. 1. The BBC isn’t stupid they are trying to protect their assets, it what any business would do. Their mistake was removing Clarkson. 2. He has said power multiple times on the Grand Tour, they managed to get around a lot of the problems with the BBC after season 1 of the Grand Tour. 3. You are a blind idiot if you hate the BBC just because they fired Jeremy. I was annoyed when he was removed from Top Gear but I don’t hold it against the BBC because it was an executive dession and whining about it on the internet is not going to magically bring Old Top Gear back.

"The way launch control works is you put one foot on the brake and the other on the throttle..." Hmm, yes, and the clutch pedal?

[@StapleCactus]

@sw4gr1d There is a launch control of sorts on manuals, though. It's electronic stability control, prevents the wheels from spinning too much by taking over throttle input and applying brakes if needed.

[@StapleCactus]

@sw4gr1d Very annoying. How can I do burnouts if the car is actively preventing me from doing them? Only the richest of sports cars give the option to turn it off completely. I have to reprogram my VW to give me the option.

I’m so glad in my sti all I have to do is put the car in first gear with the clutch in and give it some gas and let go of the clutch just as you normally would and it launches better than pretty much any super car out there.

[@jimmyreece5781]

Nah, any supercar would beat you off the line.

[@zokusharuuku1091]

@@jimmyreece5781 😂 you obviously don’t know what you’re talking about. Nothing launches harder than a modified awd car with 4 differentials to maximize grip except maybe a Tesla. Go troll elsewhere.

[@jimmyreece5781]

@@zokusharuuku1091 You're acting like there aren't awd supercars. I'm also fairly certain they're built for better performance than whatever you can do to yours. It's hardly trolling when someone calls you out for such an egotistical comment. If you think an sti will launch better than any supercar, then do 30 seconds of research. It's ok to appreciate your own vehicle, but don't be an idiot about it.

[@zokusharuuku1091]

@@jimmyreece5781 I’m not just speculating because I think my car is good at launching, I’m stating a fact that my sti will out launch most super cars out there including the awd ones. Have you been in or seen a factory Lamborghini for example or even seen one launch? They’re all terrible at it. The factory launch control keeps the rpms too low causing the engine to bog since it can’t spin the tires as they are ridiculously wide. Only a few super cars out there actually have their launch control set up properly and they’re usually rwd. Modified super cars are another story but 98% of them are stock. A lot of sti owners don’t set up their launch control properly but it takes lots of trial and error and testing in order to get the right amount of wheel spin in order to not bog the engine and keep the engine in boost. It’s an art that most car companies really just don’t have down not to mention they have reliability to consider. My twin disc clutch is strong enough to launch at whatever rpm i give it up to about 1000hp. Most factory clutches on cars like Lamborghinis start having issues once you start launching at high rpm. You’ve also got to consider gearing. Stis are geared very aggressively as they are known to be designed after rally cars where keeping rpms high is very important. I’ve even seen vw golfs out launch lambos, the lambos will pull away at high speeds as they aren’t so aggressively geared and don’t have to shift as often keeping the amount of torque to the wheels higher since they’ll be in 2nd gear at 80mph not third but they always have to play catch-up. Also I’ve spent all over $30,000 on just the engine build not to mention wheels tires and custom coil over suspension. My engine is built for 1000whp with only the turbo output limiting the power. You obviously don’t know what can be done to sti’s these days and I’m certain you’ve never been in one or any supercar which is very sad because I’d love to show you what you’re missing out on. Scaring people when I launch is one of my favorite things to do.
