This car is like driving a Lancia Stratos or a Lotus Elise when it's fully analog, and if you ask anyone of age who know them, you'll understand what I am getting at here.
Go for it! But stay safe!! |
Just wanted to add, Yes the normally available TRC/VSC full off will function almost the same.
The VSC intervention in the all off mode from 3 sec press of TRC switch, normally available will allow almost all but the largest of slip angles, and allows you to be sideways pretty much in most all situations...
What you get with this additional step is the ABS function to turn off, leaving you with fully analog car. But in most cases the ABS is a completely beneficial thing and unless you're training to be a better all-around driver, the ABS should be left on so you're not flat spotting tires or losing precious seconds off the lap by having it being off.
It's not a performance enhancing mode really, it is more a diagnostic mode for benching the car's performance without electronic intervention.
