LC....Why do i see the flag sometimes but most time's it doesn't show up..
TC is off
M mode is on Transmission is in sport Hold the brake and Mash the gas. RPM's hold just under 3k RPMs....sometimes the flag comes up and frankly most times it doesn't. Car gets out ok....but i feel like when i see the flag it has a bit more torque off the line... Thoughts?

Yea make sure you put it in first gear before holding the brake and mashing the gas. I don't think it works in just sport mode

Like i said...the car behaves like it's using LC as when i mash the gas the RPM's hold at about 2750 while i'm on the brake....But no flag...and no Launch Control message in the HUD.

When you pull the shifter over to the sport mode, do you then pull back on it to put it into first gear in sport mode? When in sport mode you have to pull the shifter back to put it in manual mode first gear so it can then do the launch control. When you hold the brake and mash the gas it will give you the flag. Even though you have it in sport and manual mode(first gear manually selected) it will shift automatically until you let off the gas.
I've attached the section in the supplemental manual that covers it. Hope this helps. Oh yea, Step No# 2 is what I'm getting at. |

Just make sure to click it into first for L/C. You can leave it in sport and it will still shift on its own but its not technically L/C. You want to only see the 1. Not s1.
Although i have seen it get confused now that you mention it. I let my uncle take her for a rip and he was struggling to get the launch control to work. He would load it up and the flag wouldnt show up then when he would go we would just bounce off the rev limiter in 1st. He eventually figured it out though.

Good to hear launch it often!!!
For the best launches at the track deactivate dsc and leave edc in normal not sport(softer suspension seetings for better weight transfer to those huge rear tires) Might not feel like your GTR but it still gets moving.

I like how Manual says "Do not Launch Too Often" or will lead to premature wear lol..
Like BMW please define "Too Often" I remember back in the Day Nissan GTR had to be reset if launched? |
