The same menu you use to reset the service reminder has the dyno mode option. Here is a PDF for all models in this old thread.

50cent disagrees and so does everyone else (including me) who's laid a 100 foot+ burnout ...there is ZERO power cut with ESP-OFF..NONE what so ever, impossible..if there was how are there countless people who can bust donuts and burnouts until the tires melt?
HAHA great video find!

But you can still spin as much as you want without using any brakes.

If you want everything off (all the helper systems) that is what the Dyno mode is for.

Maybe this is what you meant.
This is indeed what the manual states for my '14 C63. ESP is separate from "traction control", and ESP can be set to normal, sport or off. But traction control is independent. I don't know how to do dyno mode, and it's great everyone can do burnouts, but the manual states that traction control is different as stated above. Take a look. Not an engineer nor Merc expert so not sure how they differ or relate, but that's what I read.
