It doesn't really bother me that the V-Spec won't be coming here. A few mods on the current one should even things out nicely

Essentially, launch control was a a computer dynamic that allowed you to unleash the whole car, all-out. It just so happens that the transmission is too weak for the force the motor puts out, and self-destructs if not restrained. Nissan's solution to controlling the tranny-bombs is to limit the power-curve delivered to the transmission, not actually beefing up the tranny like they should.
There's a reason the Corvette has done so well...
