My belief here is that there is NO reason you should be losing traction intentionally on public roads. Thus no reason to disable TC. Assuming the slip is NOT intentional, TC can only be safer than TC off... Assuming you DO slip intentionally, you're a jackass, get off the road.
VSC lets you slip a bit too, but still babies you back into traction if you slip too far. Relatively acceptable on public roads I would think. So if you're on the edge of traction you can still feel the difference, but the risk is lower.
There is no way for me to justify TC off on public roads, unless you are stuck in snow or mud...  |
I can say the same, if you aren't losing traction why do you need TC in the first place?
The argument works for both parties.
Sure TC can save you in a few very specific cases, but those cases involve a combination of breaking the law (taking a corner faster than it was designed for) or driving at speeds that weather doesn't allow.
