this is the video you are looking for BTW. i dont really care bout the launch control issue, i have never considered buying a GTR (not in my price range) and havn't done much research on it, but it took me about 2 seconds to find this video.

I found it a couple of pages and 15 minutes ago, thanks for posting it in this format, though, looks better!

The launch-control feature isn't a big deal for me, but the child in me does like a burn-out now and then, and with the GT-R, that would void the warranty ASAP on the driveline. It makes the car seem even more "isolated". No tire-spinning. No shifting. You just turn the wheel, modulate the brakes/accelerator, flick some levers. Great on the track, but I think I would get bored on the street.
