launching an X6 (non-M)

[Macca916]

Ok whats the trick with launching the auto X6? just playing with the new toy and whilst I dont do standing starts on a regular basis it would be nice to know what the trick is and if its a transmission /driveline mashing hell to do so (probably with all that tyre grip) Note running 315x20 rears so not expecting any wheelspin in the dry..
Noticed the X5/6Ms have a launch mode to get over the auto box slurr . My one and only attempt sofar (in D mind) just results in a Looooong delay before it goes whooosh...

(PS Im old enough to know better but who cares...)

Put it in M mode and rev it to 2K while holding brakes
Let go the brakes while pushing gas pedal to the floor

dsc/dtc off
put in M2 or M1 but it`s a bit short ,
rev to 1700-2000 rpm , hold the brake
release it
same engine same wheels

I have found that the 6 sets off in 2nd from stand still, if you want a more dramatic start push it over into sport where it uses 1st, really does the trick, but it can make you look like a dick as if you aren't expecting the sudden go when you stand on the loud pedal

for that you have to rev it !!! but it`s has a little lag

Cheers for the tips, was worried about breaking something with all tyre grip available..
