 SMG burnout?



How do you do a nice 4k rpm, drop the clutch, DSC off, burnout with an SMG tranny?

...not that I'd ever abuse my car....

On my 530i w/SMG.

Turn off DSC (hold down for 3-4 seconds).

Put SMG in Sport mode.

In first gear, with car not moving, press down accelerator completely (must touch floor - and must hit floor before car can respond to gas pedal touch).

The car will rev to 3-4k and drop the clutch... :woot:

Be sure to watch your RPMS... my tires will spin and hit redline before I'm really going... so I have to back off the accelerator and keep it around redline till traction kicks in fully - then shift...

Cool...you should have asked me to try this out when you were testing driving...sounds like fun!

I didn't want to blow your trans on a test drive...


Did you give it a try?
