Tire screeching

Hi Benz lovers. I was wondering can you screech (take off) immediately with your C300 4matic. Mine seems to take off slowly when I Floor the gas pedal. Any reason why?

It’s a 3.0l naturally-aspirated 4wd luxury car. Like asking your history teacher to help with your calculus, the skill sets are misaligned.

Find a smooth tar road, put it in sport, hold brake a bit with left foot, rev and let go, see if it want to screetch.
My Izuzu 3L diesel auto screetch quite easily if I floor it on pull away. Some rough tar roads don't screetch easy.
