Golf R Observations and Questions

[HPSOV]

When using launch control is it meant to limit revs itself? I thought I could just floor it and it would hold 3200rpm until I let go of the brake. But it doesn't look like it controls revs at all, not sure why I thought it did.
Also when using launch control the subsequent gear changes did not make the farting noise and felt slower than normal. Hard acceleration without having used launch and all is normal. Tried it 3 times and it was the same every time. All done using manual mode.

We've actually be discussing the R's launch control feature over in this other thread.
