Default F10 M5 Launch Control

Warning deactivating the traction control is extremely dangerous!!!! Only experienced drivers should attempt to use launch control under safe conditions.

F10 M5 Launch Control:

1. Hold traction control down for 5 seconds. The traction control should be off completely. MDM should not be displayed.

2. Hold the shifter forward for 3 seconds and a checkered flag will appear in the bottom left portion of the gauges.

3. Hold the gas pedal down until RPMs hold. Release the M shifter and off you go!

Unlike the E60 M5, the F10 M5 allows launch control to be activated in any mode. Ie. comfort, sport, sport plus.
