Cool read..

FWIW all my MB's will power brake, no problem. Smoke just rollin off the tires(tire). Great way to destroy a flex disk

If the flex disc is in good shape it should be no issue. I've power braked my SD and beat quite a few cars off the line. If you can build some rpm's and boost prior to actually moving off, they can fly!

My 300E is WAY faster though. I recently raced someone in an older Jetta GTI and it was neck and neck to about 70, I was about 1.5 car length's ahead the whole time. Felt pretty good.
