Obviously this is not something I do on a regular basis, but i find it odd the im am unable to fully rev the engine on a cold start, it only allows me to go up to 3k rpms. is this normal???

Yes. It's built in engine protection. Why would you want to rev the engine while it's cold anyways??

honestly i didnt mean any sass,the caps were a mistake. I appreciate all the help. In regards of a wasted thread as you say. The m6 forums are already so boring, theres on average 2 post create per week. In regards of the post i think its a valid question. ive ownws 4 bmw and the other 2 i currently own (e93, e64) both allow me to rev the engine in park

When engine oil is cold it maintains a limiter to protect the engine, when engine oil is fully warm and you throw it in neutral after being in Drive, it will rev all the way up.. they all act the same, no ones is different.

On a related note: can you do a standing burn-out with a DCT M6? Stopped, in 1st, foot on the brake, foot on the gas, and get the rear end to light up? I guess I'm concerned that either the front brakes won't hold back the larger rear contact patches and the car with launch forward before the rears start to slip, AND/OR that the DCT will blow itself up if I try something this dumb...
