I heard from a Sales person, that the impressive "Launch Control" mode can only be used 6 times before the warranty for the gearbox is invalidated!!

Anyone owning one, can confirm that.
Doesn't sound too good to me. How can you impress with that limitation. That aside the system sounds great. I wonder if they will ever include it on future models of the Beast.
