I seldom find myself in a position to use it - stopped, with a straight clear road ahead. But it is fun - I did manage to put together a nice 0 - 100MPH on the way to work this summer, from a stoplight.

It seems idiotic that they have the feature on the model that doesn't really need it, and the model which really needs it doesn't have it.

I've used it to win stoplight drags. Works, I'm sure it is great for tire company! My SLK55 didn't have it but didn't really need it. Rear tires lasted 6000 miles!
