IMHO this launch control is a marketing gimmick (nominal difference in acceleration), is not good for the car, and s/b avoided. Your decision as to manual vs. teptronic (w shift paddles) s/b purely based on preference not performance, as either will do just fine in the latter category. I myself have had both, and will not likely ever go back to a manual when I can do everything a manual can do but faster and better w the teptronic. That's why all of the high HP exotics pretty much default to teptronic these days.
