Is this possible to code? - Launch Control cool down

I'm interested in know if anyone has attempted to remove the cool down period from the DCT's Launch Control feature?

I understand BMW has implemented this feature so the transmission isn't abused, however, the cool down period is measured in miles, as opposed to minutes.

For example; if I go to the drag strip to lay down some 1/4 mile runs I would most likely only be able to get in 1 run per hour or so, depending on the amount of people in line to race. However, since BMW makes you drive 7 miles before the Launch Control reset, I would only get to use it once for the entire day.

I was wondering if it's even possible and if anyone has had success.

Thanks fellas.

Sounds like that is in the DME not the modules we code. Sorry
