Read the fine print hollywood and ice, "During the running-in phase of a new vehicle, do NOT accelerate the vehicle using launch control." 
Save some of the launches for July 30th. We can time one another with my G-Meter, duh!

This is what I found: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?act=Attach...ost&id=6406. No mention of max 10 launch. But I swear I heard it somewhere.

or maybe you're allowed 10 before the SA gets mad at you for requesting a new clutch?

I can see it now...
SA: "How long have you had your car?"
Hollywood: "Umm... Less than one month."
SA: "So tell me, why do you need a new clutch? Let's run a diagnostic on the car... See what it tells us."
Hollywood: "WHAT??? The car can tell you what happened? Well, my foot accidentally stomped down on the accelerator pedal a few times. And I always turn off DSC & DTC and always have the Sport button on all the time."
SA: "So, you used the Acceleration Assist aka launch control, eh?"
Hollywood: "What's that??
