Next one is a flat track with fast corners out at Queensland Raceway so if the weather is good we will probably have some good super-tig overtaking footage for you.
Hey Team_v,
Just wondering abt launch controls on the Tig. Heard the LC is done by, turning off the ESP, put the DSG (only for DSG I heard) into 'S' mode, press and hold on the brakes w the left foot, floor the accelerator w the right and it'll rev to a certain range... N let go of the brakes... n car is launched.
Have u tried on the Tig?
I am not sure about launch control for the tig as mine is the 6 speed manual.Quote:

Launch control on DSG is activated by turning off the ESP and Auto-Hold, select either manual or S, hold your left foot on the brake and right foot on the accelerator and it'll hold at approx 4000rpm. Let your foot off the brake and hold on.
I've tired it once in the dry and it just felt nasty violent. Mechanical sympathy has a grip on me and I won't be doing it again. In the dry. In the wet or on the dirt it's a different story and a whole lot of amusement if that's your thing. If you do find a nice safe place away from public roads to have a play, you'll find the ESP is never truly off. It'll allow you to get the bum out to a dregee but it'll slap you on the wrist and end your epic tig drifting fun if you get too excited.
Ooooo thanks guys! Hahaa I too don't wanna make my Tig undergo too much unnec mechanical stress. But might give this a go if I feel daring enough!
Anyways, just sent Tirerack on a few tire brands and models. Let's see what they come back with! :)
Do u guys have any suggestions on any aftermarket wheel lug bolts and nuts? As for locking nuts, I'm swaying towards McGards black to match the matte black wheels.
No idea on the lug nuts sorry, i just have the stock bolts.
That's alright mate! Thanks anyways. I'm swaying towards a full set of McGards atm. :P
Yep read that one prior to buying my Tig. Famous or infamous in the Subaru circle...Quote:
