Lol. BTW if you REALLY want wheelspin, come try my good old V12 Vantage. It’s not actually possible to drive it enthusiastically without wheel spin…..

I've never understood the point of launch control and I've never used it on any of my cars. Reminds me of the Grand Tour episode with the GT3 banging off the rev limiter at the zebra crossing, just looks and sounds ridiculous.

agreed but it's more of an american thing imo, it's much more common in america for drivers to take their cars to drag strips

i've never driven a 765 but it really seems like you'd have to be handy at the wheel to drive it anywhere near where it could be driven! hard to even imagine on uk roads!

It's "interesting" to say the least, in low grip conditions. But a lot of fun even then.

This is what I thought of the coupe on a cold & wet December drive.
