sorry for my misspelling!
WOW. I just watched the video. It's AMAZING. I wonder if he did it in one take or it was several. But it's still lots of skills.

he knows what it is, he's just pulling your chain. anyways, try this next time you get a chance:
hold the dtc button down for 5 seconds, sport mode on (if you have it), go into manual shift mode and let her rip.
be safe!

As for drifting,... No, I never do it. Whats the point really? Do we drive on a rally stage to work? The faster way would be to drive as on a track.
cheers

relying soley on the cars momentum and not power and a good rear set up isn't that impressive. you can do that in any car.

Fine. Actually, when I take my car in and they plug my key fob into the computer, they can see how many launches I've done thus far on the car. My dealership is awesome. I've blown a bunch of O2 sensors on my M since I have all aftermarket under the hood and underside. They knew it and didn't care. They told BMW NA it was stock, replaced the parts, fixed my car in a day and it was all free. A lot of the M owners in my town go to this same dealer and all of them have highly modified cars (non-Dinan). The dealer doesn't care. They get paid from BMW based on what they tell them. Gotta love it.
