Absolutely, except launch control software is the one dumping the clutch for you in the Ferrari, so the 1 second of spooling is irrelevant for obtaining the 0-6

- Evolved 12y agoI think he's speaking about the traction issue a Ferrari experiences during launch vs the Evo which has AWD and does not suffer from such problems nearly as much (except very high HP AWD cars). Also, the 1-second of spooling may not fully occur during the hammering of the throttle until the clutch is dumped due to there being no load on the engine. You might get the turbo going some but it won't be generating the power it normally would when the car is actually moving. Since both cars in the comparison would be turbocharged then it would then come down to which car can get going quicker to keep the turbo going and that would usually go to the one that has the most traction.
