OK guys I have tried several times to "launch"...sometimes I get the revs up however I do actually think I have a fault....sometimes I stick the loud pedal to the metal and the revs don't move at all, they sit at idle around 1500 :(

perhaps this is to do with this evap solenoid intermittant fault I am booked in for on Wednesday.

btw Footy was grreeat 4-2 to the bears! :)
Mine didn't engage first time on one of my runs at Pod last weekend. So had to do it again..  :huh:
Looked a right tit on the start line...  :grin:




1500 revs means that LC isn't engaged and you have to drop back into D turn on and then off the ESP and drop back into sport mode.

Tried all this, mark from awesome took the car out himself and tried to engage the LC with no luck and he seems to be a bit of an expert at it by now through drivin there demo car. :huh: :huh:
