I may eat these words...but I'd be willing to bet we won't hear of such from Porsche's PDK Launch Control---even when it comes out for the turbo! Or at least, if it does happen, they will take care of customers. They will have done substantial worst case testing, then stripped all the test cars apart to find out where the weak points are, re-engineer them, then re-test. Afterall, Porsche invented this technology what...20 years ago? and all we've had is tiptronic since then for non-clutch folks. You can bet they haven't been sitting idle all this time.
They designed the PDK even in the S trim of both models to be able to do 40+ back to back "launches" via launch control with no ill efffects. That's pretty severe; albeit, with a bit less horsepower.
If they can engineer similar specifications for the Turbo/GT2/GT3 PDK, the acceleration times will put the GTR to shame (tho the price will too unfortunately).
Given the Boxster S is now returning 0-60 times in the 4.1-4.3 sec regime, the turbo 911 (given it has AWD) will be a sub 3-second car!
