If it weren't for the stadium lights reflecting off the bottom of the rear bumper i'd say that's a real pic

That's definitely what I'd do every morning. Nothing like the smell of tire smoke to wake you up in the morning  (because of how awefull it smells and how much that M5's tires cost will make you cry)

well if it weren't for the fact that the front of the car is larger than the back half especially the wheels it would be badass but will the M5 let you do a standing burnout like that? or will it only allow rolling burnouts... Our cars at work will roast the tires through the first 2 gears easy but if standing still the revs are cut right at stall.

I'm not sure if it will power brake or not. I wouldn't think so given the SMG programming...
And now that you mention it...the rear wheel IS abit smaller than the front

well I was thinking more along the lines of the drive-by-wire system cutting power rather than the shift programing because I know you can keep it in 1st-2nd gear. And I always heard it referred to as Torque-braking...

well, unless he put in M mode which would mean a) DSC is off which might make it possible. b) because the car is cold, there is no way he'd be able to rev past 4 or 5K c) I don't think launch/burnout mode would allow the brake to remain applied while the wheels aer spinning.
