Question Ho to launch your car.

Hello,

I would like to know if some of you knows how to use the "launch control" in a 2013 Audi S8.

Thank you

reviewers I've seen put it in dynamic, lower it, turn off traction, floor brake and throttle till it revs up then release brake and it goes. not sure if thats "launch control" but it does launch the car
