the DCT in the 135 is a bitch to launch right. i can't controll the launch RPM and the stock control just dumps the clutch at 3.5K RPM's so it's not like the M DCT at all.
And i agree, 1.9 with slicks is pathetic. The track that i go to is very busy and sometimes it's hard to get more then 2 runs in one night and this is the second time that i had the slicks so i'm still getting the feel for sticke tires with no LSD. Also, the DCT in the 135 won't let you brake boost, it won't even accelerate if the brake pedal is depressed...so you'r forced to use the launch control.
No worries, i'll get it right.
