Epic WIN: Nissan Explains Launch Control Controversy

Posted on 04.24.09 | Andrew Beckford No Comments

A while back I gave Nissan an “Epic Fail” for raising the MSRP on the GT-R.  In all seriousness the price increase was nessasary but came at a really bad time since the GT-R was still seeing giant markups at the dealerships.

Well today I am officially revoking my “Fail” of Nissan and instead awarding them an “Epic WIN”.  Why?  Well Road & Track editor/GTChannel Reporter Sam Mitani spent some time with the GT-R’s Chief Vehicle Engineer Kazutoshi Mizuno.  During their conversation Mizuno-san explained the mystery behind the Launch Control controversy that has followed the GT-R since its release and finally sheads some light on the issue.

Thanks Nissan and GTChannel.com!
