Does launch control need to be activated in order to use this feature?

Would hate damage a 2023 Nissan Z from poor shifting. Its also too cold in Illinois to launch the Z without wheel hop. Have yet to feel out first gear and have owned the car for almost 2 months now.

Sounds like launch control still needs to be engaged. Was hoping I could use it further through ECU tek.

Must be the only Manuel driver on here fml
Lol….manual driver here.
I actually did a hard pull out of first yesterday but got some wheel hop so I couldn’t stay in it. I told my buddy I was running against I didn’t think it has launch control (unless I don’t have launch control since I have a Sport)

Us Sporty's don't have launch control
