Ouch. Check your half shafts/CV joints first, and hope its one of them. Otherwise, you may have destroyed your transmission. :crazy:

For the record, LC works best when you use the clutch to minimize wheel spin off the line. Easier on your drive train as well

you should minimize wheelspin by using the LC torque limiter ;)
Not by playing with the clutch, what would be the point for the LC then in the first place?

I'm saying, don't just drop the clutch. feather it. I'm not saying slip it to red line, that's ridiculous. 2400 rpm launch control you are going to spin till 20 km/h at least and possibly brake stuff if you just drop the clutch. Feather it for the launch, let it hook up, than let r rip. I have my map set to limit wheel spin, but there's no way to get around proper clutch control off the line, its an essential part of the launch.
