How to do a flying start?
Hi,
Does anyone have a tip to perform a flying start on a S500 (RWD) 2006?
Can you put it in Drive and press the breaks and gas at once for instance, and then release the breaks?
How do you do 0-100kph quickest? How many secs?
Also as I soon will change my tires soon, how do you do a burnout?
I know this isnt a race car but I want to win the "red light challenge" against anyone who wants to try me
Thanks,
Arne

The best way to win a red light race in an S500 is to put the car in Sport mode, then, depress the brake pedal twice in rapid succession. Hold down the "Mute" button and the "Volume" button on the steering wheel simultaneously for ten seconds until you hear three beeps. After the third beep, shoot the other driver with a small handgun, because that's pretty much the only way to win a street race in an S500.

What would be the best handgun for this purpose?

Something untraceable with the serial number ground off and the barrel filed to eliminate rifling marks.
But for the cost of a capital murder defense it might be cheaper to trade for an S600, S63 or S65. The S500 has respectable scoot given its size but it's a lover, not a fighter.

I don't believe the ECU reset works for your model, but doesn't hurt to try. Then floor it. Let us know how you do. And be aware you may strain the drivetrain beyond the breaking point ...
