If you can learn a what point you will loose traction, then the little yellow light should never light up, yet still have your safety net

EDIT: on the 1M, MDM mode is a happy middle ground and very predictable

With good tyres you are absolutely right, but with average tyres and a bit of wheel spin traction will cut in and brake a spinning wheel, even when you are going safely in a straight line, so it will slow you down considerably even when its safe

definately, traction off is more fun

actually traction control can put your car in limp mode at the track cos of this too which is annoying

i spun my old mans m3 out of turn 2 lol, of course it was the worn out tyres fault, not a heavy foot, wrong line, slow reactions or anything, ha ha, he seriously needs to get new tyres.

OT: Are you going to that evening track day this monday, there is a slim chance i could get that arvo night off.
