not done that but got really close and as soon as it got a bit dangerous clutch in revs down, like gsxrmick, who need launch control when you have 2 good hands?

Launch control just makes it so you can dump the clutch and give the bike a handful of revs and it'll do the hardwork. Having no launch control means you'd have to do it the proper way (i.e proper clutch control) Obviously Pedrosa didn't know his LC wasn't working so dumped the clutch and you saw what happened next..
