I have snow tires on at the present time. They might be racing slicks after a few launches!

These times are probably 5-60mph (so excluding "rollout"), right?

Rollout deducts 1 foot. Not necessarily the first 5mph. But yes, the time the truck reports seems to deduct rollout. I’ve confirmed with my dragy

Just got 4” of snow today. So won’t be trying this for a bit. Even though I got the update yesterday.

Right there with you. Seems like winter was an odd time for this update, but Im not complaining about updates…

Got a question for those of you with experience with the launch mode. Have you taken it to a drag strip? Does the launch mode work with the 'christmas tree' at the strip or no? I understand I can just punch it myself but would be kinda cool if the truck could do it too.

Just asking because I do plan on going to a strip to see what I can do when the weather gets nicer.

I gave it a go on Thursday evening. 2022 Quad motor. It was about 50 degrees out, stock all terrain 20” tires, very slight uphill. Launch seemed more “violent” than it did before the update.

…in a good way. 😄

No, doesn’t work with the Christmas tree. Timing is all up to you. Once you’ve engaged all the procedures for launch mode and the accelerator is pinned, it takes a couple seconds to fully enter launch mode. It will tell you on screen when it’s ready

Sub 3 seconds is impressive. Now what would the 1/4 mile time and speed be?

Also, anyone have done with and without LC and compared the times?

Like on Strava, if there isn't proof, it doesn't count ;).
