Tried doing a launch today. Nada. No bear for me!!
Just brake and mashing accelerator and go.
Feels like the Hagerty video. Super slow from 0-6mph, almost like a deliberate delay. Then BOOOM, I hit triple figures well before my Taycan. There's a long stretch of road that I use with no traffic. Canyon road. if nobody's behind you, you got some runway to play with. This is just butt dyno talking. If I launch the Taycan, I'll usually hit close to triple digits before I have to let go because a curve is coming up. On the Gravity, I was already well passed triple digits and just let off the accelerator. My RRS Autobiography was like my Taycan, close to triple then have to let go.
Funny enough, I have never launch the Plaid X on this stretch of road. Might need to do that.
The launch on the Gravity was very meh, no drama. didn't feel like a launch. The Taycan launch is like a roller coaster. you can feel the Gs.
On the Gravity. No noise, no fanfare, but I do feel like the front got some air (no video to prove this), and I feel a slight bit of torque steer, or maybe it's the rear-wheels looking for traction.
Maybe future OTA will give us launch mode? Or they're saving that for the Gravity Sapphire?
