Race Start

I'm having some issues always getting Race Start to work on my 2013 SL63. Many times the car is warmed up, I put the traction control into Sport Mode, have a foot on the brake, car in drive, and it won't circle past the M-Manual mode. Other times it will do it just fine. I'm not sure why it doesn't always do that.

Is there a certain oil temperature the car needs to be at? I seem to recall reading something about that on a different AMG. Is there something else that I need to be doing?
