I swear Norman!! You asked the the second dumbnest questions (the winner goes Richard Cohen, but you are catching up!! :-))

Okay Norm!! I want you to do this.
1)Take your silverstreak to a large shopping center’s parking lot 2:00AM Sunday morning.
2) Find an empty spot w/ a long strretch of space ahead of you.
3) Do the “2 finger salute” (this means to turn-off the DSC and turn-on the Sports buttom simutaneously ).
4) Rev your engine to 1,500 RPM (that’s all you need)!!
5) release the clutch
6) hammer the throttle.
7) hold on to your steering wheel for dear life!!

You should now have your answer, but if not repeat the process w/ the engine rev to 4,000 RPM in step 4. A word of warning, check your wallet for $1,000 bills before you do this. Also may want to look for a tire nearby.

Hope this helps,

beewang

since you mentioned it -- do you know if the US-spec E39M5 has the CDV?

Rgds,
Norm
