1975DCS should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
You must be confusing traction control with launch control? Ron Snoeck tested his new Seat without launch control, but will switch to that later. I think they first want to optimise grip as much as possible without the electronics, so that the electronics will have to do as little as possible.

I think launch control is widely used in Division 1, it is a delicate mix of boostpressure, ALS, rpm, torque, power and mechanical grip to get off the line as quick as possible, especially with 4wd and turbolag which could halt the car! A good launch control will make the best start, without wheelspin, which in turn saves the tyres...

Maybe a Div 1 driver could tell us something? Mad Mark maybe?
