I typically drive with "traction control" off. I don't have a VBOX or real data behind the claim, but I feel like I rarely or never get the launch bog with it off. I'm wondering if the traction control is so sensitive that it causes the slight hesitation from a stop.

Launches also seem more predictable/quicker in manual mode, but I know LC requires you to remain in Sport. But for daily, it seems to be the best combination. From what I remember, some magazines were claiming sub 4 second with LC on (but it was probably with a gallon of gas, down wind).
