Find a nice stretch of road that uses a long strip of high grip asphalt (cream surface) running out of a round about, plan a nice quiet time of day/night use this surface to start on, will make a serious difference.
Sport + mode

Just out of interest OP. Have you been running the car for a while before attempting this? Quite a few of us have noticed that for the first 10 miles or so of a journey the 125d can feel a bit strangled.
Also, no point in all this talk of launch control type stuff and ATs as the OP has a manual.
