Sports Response Button and Launch Control

582 Views 4 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  BobbyG
I have finally cleared the 1K mile mark on my 911 and believe it is sufficiently "broken in" to try the Sports Response button and Launch Control. For those who have used either of these functions, is there anything I need to know or expect? Where did you first try those functions? I don't want to end up like one of those idiots on YouTube who crashes his car into a guardrail or ditch. :cool:

You won’t. Just have straight piece of road!

Pre-order a new set of rear Pirellis. And just don't film it and you'll be fine.

Can't help Doc. For Sport Response I just manually downshift and mash the pedal in Sport Plus! ;) Launch Control is possible with MT but that would require releasing the clutch at 3.5-5K RPM🥵 I'm not that good and I love my clutch too much to do that.

Good luck! Lots of vids on Launch control with PDK. This driver does it with high heels! LOL!

Never used it in my manual either….too scared until Porsche shows me how without frying my clutch! Let us know how it works out.
