yea i know but what about when you rev it to like 4,000 rpm and want to take off it wont let you. Im talking about from a standstill.
1) fully disable DSC/DTC
2) Put left foot on brake
3) shift car to drive
4) with left foot on brake, press accelerator
5) look in your rearview mirror (see the smoke)...Mission accomplished

Most Lexii, you can't fully disable the stability control. I believe the IS-F is the first ...

This is the 2nd thread I've discussed tonight (although different boards), re a DSC off tire smoking launch. I've actually not tried it yet in the 550i. I guess I'll just have to for the sake of spreading knowledge to the board. I have chirped the tires and lit up the DSC from a suprisingly mildly agressive launch.
As a reference, I did a standing start Autocross in an E39 M5 (manual tranny). A 1400 rpm launch spun the tires nicely. A mere 1600 rpm overwhelmed them and I had to back off and lost time.
