A device for controlling a starting procedure of a motor vehicle for initiating a movement of the motor vehicle includes a controller which receives as input, signals generated by an engine shaft speed sensor, a driving speed sensor, a transmission shaft speed sensor, a transmission output shaft speed sensor, and an accelerator pedal position sensor. The controller is operatively connected to the engine for increasing the engine speed above a minimum threshold value when the driver signals his desire for a racing start. The controller is also operatively connected to a clutch activation device for deliberately producing a slip of the driving wheels and for controlling the slip of the driving wheels by controlling a slip of the clutch after a starting time point signaled by the driver.

Device for controlling a starting procedure

System for the control of the roll of a motor vehicle, the system including a number of valves and lines for the feed and control of an actuator. The actuator is coupled to a stabilizer by means of connections, whereby the lines and connections have a one-to-one correspondence, in that the coupling points which are relevant for operation are all realized so that they can only be connected in the correct pairings.
