    It's savage alright. Although wasn't there an issue in the US where folks had their gearboxes in their new GTR's go wallop and Nissan tell them that if you keep using launch control that'll happen and they're not covering more than a certain number of uses of it?

    That's fairly crap alright. Is that still the case? Wonder how many times you can use other launch control systems in other cars?
