Matt, if your tyre pressures are up high that can upset the launch calculations. Try launching it with 4psi less all round... Also make sure that the front and rear tyres (whatever psi you run) have the same difference percentage between front and back as the recommendation. Those millimeters front to back can make the difference between it's calculations of projected or actual wheelspin, and therefore think there's moore spin on one axle than there is.
@@OriginalMindTrick More air hardens tires making them have less contact to the ground...less air allows flex and more contact .... drag cars do so...not sure if they're gay though😅
Mate I’m pretty sure it’s because his car didn’t do 1 good launch the entire video lol, that would annoy anyone. But even worse when it’s his car that isn’t working
The pissed mood really came through for matt on the brake test when he let it all out by stamping hard on the brakes. The sheer emotion on the braking😮
He is not selling it since it's already been collected by Audi press office who loaned him the car in the first place. It was never his to begin with and even if it was I know that at least I wouldn't be selling it because of that kind of issue. But people today are weird.

Two points to consider 1. Use the lighter R8 v10 plus / performance coupe, not the heavier Spyder. 2. Don't hold the car on launch for so long. It launched better when you did a shorter launch sequence.
Matt’s frustration with the launch was hilarious you can see you was genuinely pissed off but at the same time had to keep it professional for the channel 😂😂😂😂😂
being that the race is only 10-12 seconds long can yall start including a speedo sceen from beginning to the end to see just how fast these cars are? its been 3 years for me as a viewer and i still have to go to other channels to see 0-140 times for these cars
Matt, it only worked when you didn’t hold it in launch mode for the duration of the (3, 2, 1) countdown. Notice how you only held it for around a second when you launched alone.
I had a 2020 R8 Spyder and this is true. You pretty much had to activate launch control and instead just go. It doesn't do anything holding it in an NA car anyways
The R8 was struggling because he didn’t have it in Dynamic. He had the gearbox in MANUAL but didn’t shift, so it was waiting on him to shift out of first, but when he didn’t it killed power to save the gearbox and shifted itself.
I have this same car and I was wondering about this. I noticed (to my disappointment) that mine doesn’t shift up when in manual (by the paddles not to the left on the gear stick). So this is the reason it failed then? Don’t own one? I still haven’t launched mine.
It’s because you’re holding the rpm’s too long before launch during the races, brake needs to be released quicker- when you released the brake quick on the test runs it worked every time.

The only thing I can notice that is different from when you're drag racing to when you're testing the launch is the amount of time you hold your car in launch mode. When you're practicing, you just hold it for a sec and then let it go, when you're dragging, you're holding it for much longer, maybe that overheats the clutches or the robot arm
@carwow You can "remove" the soft limiter by putting the car between N and P with the gear lever. VAG has this feature where no gear is selected, the gearbox is in Neutral, but it shows nothing on the display. Since no gear is selected, there is no soft limiter (coding error). You can rev it out then :)

Matt, if your tyre pressures are up high that can upset the launch calculations. Try launching it with 4psi less all round...
Also make sure that the front and rear tyres (whatever psi you run) have the same difference percentage between front and back as the recommendation. Those millimeters front to back can make the difference between it's calculations of projected or actual wheelspin, and therefore think there's moore spin on one axle than there is.
What type of gay car needs lower tyre pressure to go fast?

1. Use the lighter R8 v10 plus / performance coupe, not the heavier Spyder.
2. Don't hold the car on launch for so long.
It launched better when you did a shorter launch sequence.
I thought the same thing, it looked like a problem with holding it too long on the launch
Exactly what I was thinking he could have used a plus. Exactly the outcome I expected.
He could have also swapped spots with the lambo
What does 2nd point mean?
@@hilmiwali I think he means don’t hold it in launch control for too long
