I need help!

Hi guys! I need some advice. I have a 2013 335i 6MT with JB4. I'm having a hell of a time launching the car.... I get lots of wheel spin. The car currently has ContiSportContact 5 SSR rubber. Any advice on how to launch the car?

There was a thread a while ago on this topic, basically i remember that you need to keep the revs around 2k rpm to not get too much wheel spin with a manual clutch, you might want to google it to find more details on this.

Thanks! I've tried searching without a ton of success.

My best launches are at around 2300 RPM in Sport + with a quick roll off the clutch.

I don't have a JB4 yet though, so I don't get much more than a quick chirp. Maybe you could limit boost a bit in first gear?
