Auto launching with traction issues!

I love my car even though it's slower than an SS it's still a LOT quicker than people think.

0-60 in bout 8 seconds for the op. the 2.4 that posted the video was almost a full second quicker. not sure if it's stock or not though, and if he's manual or auto

He's auto however listen closely to my vid, the car bogged badly in second gear because it spun first and shifted early on me. I'll post a better one tonight to show the true performance.
