A manufacturer cannot void your warranty for normal use of the Launch Control feature, just ask Nissan, they know. OP, a five minute conversation with an attorney will open your eyes to the 1,001 ways you can amend this situation. There are countless laws that protect you from this shameless denial of warranty duties by your dealership, specifically the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. What happened to your car is not normal. I and many others have launched heavily modified M6s with much more power than the drivetrain has been originally designed to support with no issues. What happened here was a freak accident and the dealership is simply trying to defer blame back to you. In any case I would refrain from getting into too many details of the situation here before consulting with my attorney. At this moment the less you reveal, the stronger your hand against your dealer

^^ thank you. I was about to chime in but this about sums it up. If we are purchasing a $120k car that we cannot "floor" from a stoplight (without it breaking) then something is obviously wrong.
It sounds to be like someone is blowing smoke up your ass OP. I wouldn't lie down and take that at all. Good luck with it!
