This is exactly why a few of us raised eyebrows a couple of weeks ago in response to another post that asked for assistance in proper launch control technique. The poster provided a video of his attempt, and it was apparent from the video that he shot it himself while driving, focusing the camera on the instrument cluster with his shaky hand as he launched the car on the street at night. It's one thing to do it on a public road when you have good conditions, can see well, know that there are no other cars or people around to hit, and you're using BOTH hands on the wheel and focusing on driving the car, it's another to launch while trying to video. Might as well have been talking on the phone and eating a Big Mac at the same time...
