I think I read somewhere here that you also want to turn off your DSC.

Here is an article (look halfway down where the auto tranny shifter is pictured) that better describes the brake-torque method of launch I was mentioning above...

How to launch your X5…easy !

Drive it onto the flight deck of one of your Yankee aircraft carriers
Ask the flight crew to hook it up on the catapult
Raise the jet blast deflectors
Salute the ‘shooter’
and away you go !…(play Top Gun Theme)
