It may be related to the CDV.. I was trying to shift quite rapidly to see how fast I could get it to 60mph, but I've done the same thing in my 128i on numerous occasions and didn't experience anything like this.
You likely glazed the clutch the first time you tried it, and doing it again 2-3 times after didn't help.
Once you smell the clutch, STOP with any more hard launches.

BTW 0-60 is only going to take 1 shift to 2nd, unless you're short shifting, meaning you're shifting well before red line, then it'll need 2 shifts to 3rd.

How do you like the MT in your 328i vs the 128i, this issue aside.
