How to use Launch Control on SRT / Hellcat Charger, Challenger, Demon, Superstock or Durango Hellcat??

Launch control is a feature that allows drivers to achieve the best possible acceleration from a standing start. Here's a general guideline for using the launch control in a Dodge Hellcat:

  1. Start the car and ensure it's in "Drive" or "Track" mode.
  2. Activate the launch control feature. On the Hellcat, this can be done by pressing the "SRT" button and then selecting "Race Options." From there, you should be able to activate "Launch Control."
  3. After activating launch control, you can set the desired RPM for launch. The best setting will depend on a number of factors, including tire temperature and road conditions, but a typical setting might be around 2000-3000 RPM.
  4. Once you've set your desired RPM, press and hold the brake with your left foot.
  5. Press the accelerator all the way down. The engine will rev up and hold at the RPM you've set.
  6. When you're ready to launch, release the brake. The car will accelerate as quickly as possible without spinning the wheels.
  7. Keep the pedal to the metal until you reach your desired speed or until you need to shift (if you're not using automatic transmission).

Remember, this feature is intended for use on a racetrack or drag strip. Always ensure you're in a safe and legal environment before using launch control, and be mindful of your vehicle's health - repeated hard launches can wear on your car's transmission and drivetrain.

Lastly, keep in mind that the steps above may slightly vary depending on the specific model and year of your Hellcat. Always refer to your owner's manual for the most accurate information.
