Thank you Hamza.. you can get a strong connection with your car - especially once you start modding it and also driving it in the Nurburgring 👌🤓😉 yes, Misha drive it really fast.. was wondering how fast he could have gone without traffic, on the first few fast sections of the track!? 🤷‍♂️

You're 100% correct that there must be a balance between power and chassis capabilities. If you can't put the power to the ground, it is a waste. Cut back on power and have it on a wider range so the car will be easier to drive and more responsive.

To the owner of this epic m140,all other m140/m240 owners, unfortunately you can't be in sports + and have the traction fully off.When you're in sports+ it'll keep you in that mode unless you press and hold dsc.If you press the traction button once whilst in sports+ or sport mode,it'll put you into comfort traction mode,which allows more slip to the rear,opens the vales,but keeps everything else in comfort. dsc fully off Is its own mode by itself.

[@Scrytheux]

What this guy said is 100% correct. DSC fully off is separate driving mode.

[@treliq]

The best thing with Dsc off is that the throttle response is linear and not as senditive as sport +, something that you absolutely want when all nannies are off.

I have the m235i and as far as I know, the DSC OFF is a mode in itself, you don't need to put it in sport or sport+ first. You just hold the DSC OFF for 5 seconds, it turns off the stability and traction control, engages the eLSD, and firms the suspension and the steering wheel, the pedal mapping is like the comfort mode. They may have changed it with later models but I doubt it
