    Yeah for guys that do this professionally they got it all wrong. I actually own a gt500 and the launch control is pretty good even on a none prep surface very little spin in first and no spin in second with your foot to the floor and yeah that’s why it has a drag mode

      your absolutely right! i also own a gt500 and im not being bias because of that on the other hand i feel like the gt500 driver was. just the way he was so negative from the start and talking down about the gt500s launch control??? the guy literally said "im going to launch this without launch control"????? like are you serious? i would take any m4 of the rip. first time i see one of these editors being so bias instead of letting the car do what it does best, ford engineers programed this state of the art computer to launch the car faster and better than any human its the reason why they also only made a dct available. they wanted to insure no human error like this BOZO just proved!!!!

      Guys that own these and have been to Ford Performance Racing School; we learn how to launch. One of the tricks is to keep your steering wheel top dead center with no left/right input. That lowers the output if you move the wheel, even a little bit. There are other things too with launch control. But, no doubt the BMW is fast. I didn't buy the GT500 to be the fastest car in the universe. For me, it is the whole experience. And man does it handle amazing. Even on 4S tires in heavy rain.

    • @deluccs2592
      @deluccs2592 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I guess drag mode wouldn't be the best for the hard braking and tight turn, and maybe the best bet was the track one, only the guys in the video could know why it was that way

      I find it kind of funny that manual transmissions are considered sporty in the USA. I'm German and manual transmissions are super normal in europe. 70% of all cars are manuals vs. 7% in the US. From a certain power on let's say 300bhp a manual is so much slower in acceleration compared to a modern dsg, dct or even zf hp8.
      I like driving shift, it's kind of fun, but if you want the best performance frkm your car, automatic nowadays is better.
      I'm anyway wondering why people abroad with all the strict speedlimits love to buy those germans cars. I guess most of the people do not regualary go on track events...

      I think you may want to rewatch that video. The M8 absolutely freight trains the GT500 from a dig. I love American muscle, but I just wish they'd offer AWD in their high performance cars. Then again, people who decry an AWD Mustang. But the CT5V Blackwing would be insane with AWD. Once you get to the power levels that some of these cars have, RWD is almost useless on the street. I had a 2005 GTO that made 600rwHP and it was a blast, but it was futile trying to get it to hook below third gear on the street. Even on DR's, 1st was pointless.

Despite that, it'll still hang the tail out with the best of them if you want, thanks to some fantastic engineering on the power balance. The launch on this little thing is just brutal, though, and is 2/3 of the reason it can beat a lot of way more powerful cars from a stop. I compare it to my 600-ish HP '85 Silverado, where the rear tires just laugh at you when you mash the gas. The big block sounds awesome, but the little turbo BMW does all things fast so much better (and safer) - while also pulling down 35MPG on the interstate. Can't pull a trailer or haul home a new fridge, though, so the truck stays. :D
