In this video I explain how to use launch control in a Charger RT 5.7 and get a kick out of the results! ALL ON A CLOSED COURSE! Beats by : SHOCKA252 MY INSTAGRAM : mdg_collections #dodge #charger #classic
It was really awesome learning how to use that launch control properly. Thanks man for hanging out & teaching me. The ending is so funny! It would be a lot of fun to race that hellcat, great job!
+R/T Life always a pleasure collaborating with you and plenty more to come! Man you launch like a pro now! Yea I think we may have some kinda special brewing! Let's see if JMC accepts this challenge! Lol!!!
R/T Life what year is your charger? I was wanted to unlock launch mode in my 2017 charger RT. Did you just use a zautomotive tazer to unlock those features? thanks it advance
mo bubba who knows I have a taser it gives me all the option I just never executed it after playing with my line lock.. or the shift light but I heard it’s just a show... Weird because rt life lol has an rt... N so do I 2017 blacktop rt.
I retried it this morning. Worked great. Only thing the road was a LiL wet. So def. Had wheel spin. But will definetly be doing it again on dry roads. 👍💪💪💪
I just bought a 2018 Dodge Charger RT. I haven't been able to see anything that gives me the option to do launch control. Is this something available on every 2018 dodge charger RT or is it just on certain ones?
Old video but I do have a question, I have a 2018 rt 5.7 but it doesn’t have performance pages, would doing the tazer give me the pages and launch control?
Very informative video! But I still have a question, I haven’t been able to get launch mode to work with my 16RT. The dash says to follow the instructions on the screen but they never come up. Zautomotive support said that the pcm for the 5.7 doesn’t support it. Did you switch yours out for a diablo or a scat pack stage pcm or something?
+DSW Joyride Productions thanks a lot man for keeping up with my little sequential videos lol RT LIFE is the man and a lot of fun to collab with! We have great chemistry!
I'm going to give it a shot in my Daytona and make a video on it soon I'm really interested in doing this now. I've never seen it say release. Did you turn off the esc as well or just traction control?
+K 1500 man once you follow my instructions and do it properly and you see it says release it will explode off the line like a rocket and pin you back like you're a P.O.W.! Its amazing! And it doesn't matter if traction control is off or on. It still works! Keep me posted!
Hadn't watched till the end before my previous comment. If you guys are ever in the DE/Southeast PA area I would take that challenge. So far my best 0-60 on a back road with no burnout, no prep and no launch control is 4.3 secs on my summer 315 Contis.
My wifes car barely hit 500 miles, now I can use the launch controller, but I wasnt holding the brake down all the way, I will try that tomorrow ! Good video
johnnypro I'm hesitant to just slam down on the throttle, but I think that is key. You would think the computer would allow you to gradually apply the throttle.
+Hector Serrano Hector man what's up! I know who you are. You have the blue SRT and i found out later your name on RU-vid but didn't know it early on to put your name over your car in that Freeport L.I. RT Life car meet when I first met u! Anyways yes 2nd gear in our car engine is no joke! The car just explodes off the line but yes does have some wheel spin! But a ton of fun to launch!
MDG Collections Yep that's me blue SRT. We definitely need to step up These back tires. Rory should be able to Launch above 2 grand with his tires, He might need to take some air out to get a good time. Keep up the good work with these videos
how does launch control work if settings of traction is on track , sport ,or street? Do you still get good launch if traction is on track or sport mode with these tires?
Guys Fantastic video! Amazing entertaining footage ! Great launch! When I do it I spin like a son of a gun , but then still got stock tires on and they are on way out ! Hell yeah - take on jmc ! Would love to see that
+Eurospeed lol yea Frank when you get your new tires and do a launch it will be much better! But thanks a lot man! Glad you enjoyed it! And yes TAKEONJMC
Broo I still need help properly launching my car. I tried it out today and I held down the brake and once I pressed the accelerator it started burning out. Can you please tell me what I’m doing wrong.
Hey I subscribed to your channel can you sub back. If you see my channel I don't have a mopar since I'm only 14 and I'm only a lover of mopar not an owner.
Hey man I just got a new Dodge Charger r/t myself and just got to the point where lunch control became available everytime I use it though she just wants to spin the tires like a burnout. I have it set up at 2200 am I doin somethin wrong idk tbh any advice?
Great video and at some point I still have to try launch control in my Hellcat. So in my opinion I think the 5.7/6.4 cars against a Hellcat on stock tires at stock size have a very good chance at beating in a 60ft race or 0-60mph. But as soon as you change the tires on the Hellcat to something other than stock tires and size (especially drag radials) that completely changes. Hellcats on drag radials in 305/315 sizes (especially Mickey Thompson DRs) are doing as low as 3.2 sec 0-60mph. The thing I found most interesting about this video is that everything I have read and seen online regarding launch control is that is sucks. Maybe it is like MDG said and its is because its being done wrong. Of course most of the stuff I watch and research is Hellcat related so it could also be people trying to use launch control on the stock Hellcat setups. I think in the stock configuration the Hellcat is going to melt the tires unless your trying to leave the line at idle. I mean its almost an art form to launch a Hellcat with as little spin as possible. In my first quarter mile pass I made the mistake of thinking because I had 315 Continental summer tires on the car and I was at a prepped drag stripe I could just stab the pedal on green. Ended up doing a rolling burnout pretty much through the 1/8 mile.
+coolwrld302 Great reply and great information about the HELLCAT's launching properties and yes you are exactly right with what you said about a HELLCAT on drag radials would be something dangerous and a complete freak of nature but on just stock tires his RT may have a chance to stay close with JMC's HELLDEMON in a 60 foot 0-60 race! LOL But this will be something to see IF it goes down! Thanks a lot for the support!
Completely agreed 707hp means nothing if it is going towards melting the tires off the wheels. I'm probably going to go to an 18 inch wheel and drag radial on my Cat this year. Can't what to scare the shit out of myself with that launch.
Lmfao yea let me tell you I've launched my 392 which is amazing then the very next day my buddies 5.7 in this video and so I can only imagine launching a Hellcat and the great art it takes to do it without doing a rolling burnout on ice like you said! Man i'd love to see you do that in a video on your channel!
LOL......I think it would be interesting to see the three Hemis in a single race as opposed to one against the other. I think with Launch Control the 0-60 between all three will be pretty but in the .25 mile is where you'll see the difference. Just an idea...lol
Yea a great damn idea! You know I did a video for you before so let's see! I don't wanna take from there race. But maybe in a part two of a race of us lol
OMG thanks guys , I'm sure I'm in the majority I'm guessing that do not know how to properly use launch contol, Holy crap , I can't wait till spring , my buddys gonna shit his pants when I race him
Lol glad you found this useful and I really wish you the best in your race using launch control! It will propel your car like no other way! I'm telling you man this will take you off the line in a way you've never experienced!
I cannot get my charger to not spin at 2k. Basically turns into burnout control haha. 8 inch wide is not enough for the RT, wish it came with 9 inch wide standard.
@@MDG_Collections thanks man one more question? the launch control rpm settings that that you choose in launch mode with they carry out rpm shift points through Out the car. Was playing around and 1500 vs 2000 rpm set points felt like car behaved differently
This was a great video man. Really good to see you guys hanging out shooting the sh¡t about these Hemi's like real men should! You guys are hilarious😁 #takeonjmc
I have a 2018 challenger rt plus pretty base that I'm building into prostreet but I want launch control and line lock and I was told the tazer only gives scat packs launch control
Thanks a lot Robert! I appreciate your support on my video. Yea the RT is a beast in it's own right. You may not have launch control but you can certainly launch your car manually and have some fun.
Ran at the track last night twice with this and it just feels like easy mode for drag racing. Time was slower. Pretty easy to pull off but yeah i don't reccomend using this
