Using "pedal dance" or doing a long press of the traction button turns off traction control, which can help. On the flip side, you won't have traction control assisting you on the course

Wait, rlly..it kind of makes sense though.
Ok so ABS bad because increases heat, heat bad because destroys pads. Pedal dance is not available for these cars so I guess heavy braking without engaging abs is would be my goal.
Why is traction control bad? that had nothing to do with brakes? I thought it just takes power away from the rear wheels. Do you mean stability control? I think stability control engages the brakes to keep the car …well stable.
