launching a E63

I was wondering what is the best way to launch my E63 on a drag strip?
If anyone would be of help that would be great!

i don't think this car requires a lot of technique in stock trim. get a good burnout and punch it when the light is green.

Avoid the water trap, comfort susp. mode, tract. off, preload throttle, launch and gradually squeeze the throttle for the first 2 shifts or you'll spin the rears and lose time. Getting a good 60' is tricky and requires practice practice practice.
