If I'm in 8th cruising, yup—you're bang on, I just can't get the gear I need quickly enough. If I'm in say 4th and we're already playing, I fall behind a half car length for the first 2 seconds or so and then pull convincingly past them and it's no contest from there.

From a dig and with the 2020 transmission changes, I can get launch control shift behaviors (QS3 or quick shift—that's the special shift it does in LC) without needing launch control. I require MDM, the smallest of brake boost and then manual shifts but the shift behavior and more importantly speed is exactly the same as LC—19s do not do this. I'm able to nail consistent 2.68s through 2.75s 0-60s in this mode. 2.57s and 2.59s are only achievable in full launch.
