Doesn't mater if there is a converter or not.

It just looks at a couple things:


1) Is there throttle input?
2) Are any of the wheels moving?

If the answer to 1 is YES but the answer to two is NO, boom, engage launch control. Hold revs at pre-determined point until those factors change, allow a prescribed amount of drive wheels vs non drive wheels slip factored with a user-determined ratio of desired slip, disengage once drive and non drive wheel speed are within the desired envelope.

It's as simple as that, though I am sure they use other factors for reliability and safety. (Like clutch or brake sensors etc)

Absolutely no reason this won't work on an ATX car.
