Default Random 2 step misfire

So I have a random misfire only on 2 step. Driving the car never misfires. I 2 step\ use launch control and I get a bad misfire it’s almost like a injector stops firing drive it down the road with misfire and it goes away in 10 seconds. One of my injector clips is broke. Maybe it is that I will try zip tie to keep it tight and see if it makes a difference. Only other thing I could think of is maybe the cam angle sensor. It’s just weird it only happens on 2 step then goes away making me think it’s a loose connection somewhere. What do you guys think?

Not fully sure what the problem is. If anything it sounds like its working Not to sound condescending but, do you know what 2 step/launch control is supposed to do?

Not to sound like a a*** but obviously. It’s for showing off right???. One a serious note yes it’s to launch. I can’t launch if I have a misfire out of the gate yk? But the clip on the injector was the problem zip tied it and we good now
