Yeah, what is that? It was in both runs, and not at the shift.

Yeah, I think. But it doesn't say launch control, it says "competative mode."
you can see it on the DIC.

I thought I read they were two different things, or is there a difference in auto and 5 speed. I was reading the specs for a 5 speed and I thought it said lanch control as well a compeditive mode. One Lauch changes the tracktion control settings and the other turns off the stability control.

Started to read the manual...

COMPETITIVE MODE
If your vehicle has this feature, this message displays
when the Competitive Driving mode is selected.
The Traction Control System (TCS) will not be operating
while in the Competitive Driving mode and the
ESC/TCS light on the instrument panel cluster will be on
solid. Adjust your driving accordingly. See Traction
Control System (TCS) on page 4-6, Electronic Stability
Control (ESC) on page 4-10, and Electronic Stability
Control (ESC)/Traction Control System (TCS)
Indicator/Warning Light on page 3-37 for more
information.


LAUNCH CONTROL
If your vehicle has this feature, this message displays
after the COMPETITIVE MODE message when the
vehicle is stopped. Launch control is a form of traction
control to control wheel spin while launching the
vehicle during closed track events and competitive
driving venues. The system will exit to COMPETITIVE
MODE after the vehicle is launched. See
“COMPETITIVE MODE” earlier in this section. See
“Launch Control” under Electronic Stability Control
(ESC) on page 4-10 for more information.
