With rumors crisscrossing the Web concerning myths of GT-R launch control abuse, broken transaxles and void warranties, a mean buzz started; that the 2010 Nissan GT-R won't have launch control system. So there was an inquiry and then, more inquiry. Three Nissan employees were questioned: one from the public relations department, one from engineering and one high-ranking executive. The first two affirmed its elimination was being seriously considered, but the final decision had not yet been reached. Then the high-ranking executive affirmed the bad news. "It's gone," he said when asked if launch control would return in 2010, he said, "It's gone. We just don't want to deal with the warranty nightmare anymore. It'll make the 2009 GT-R really special. It'll be the only R35 with launch control." -- Kelly Toepke, News Editor [source insideline]
