it is for the ejector seat. Seriously though, it stands for "sport" and when you drive with it there it lets the engine rev higher for any given speed under acceleration when compared with "d" position. So say at 40MPH in "d" the indicated rpm might be 3000 and in "s" at 40 mph it might be 4000. Finally, at a higher rpm your car will make more power (an eat more gas) so use "s" at the track or for a quick getaway.
