This is definitely not the car for that. You're not going to win many stoplight races, especially in the rain.

To answer your question, it's probably a combination of the above...lower torque, more weight on the rear tires, possible AWD in the S500 vs you basically not being able to get any power to the ground in wet conditions. Is your car stock?
