So, coming around a corner and I romp on it and I wait for the rear end to break loose. It's going to take some doin, these tires are stickier than a 5 year old boy's fingers and this engine has about as much balls as he does too. I feel it start to come loose and I get ready to feed a little countersteer in when I hear a noise and it feels like the left rear brake is doing something and the fun stops like I forgot to bring a rubber, panties came right back up and the car sort of wallowed back in line.

So that's what traction control in a slide feels like? Great Beelzebub's taint, that sucks!

I reached over and turned that shit off, but I didn't get a test until later today when some goof on a big fat wet fart sounding scooter tried to sweep around on the outside and I wound out the gear and spanked the shifter into the next and she kicked the tail a bit out before these gumballs went, "nope, go that way, car." That's better.

I might get that jumper module to shut this crap off permanent if it ever turns itself back on in the middle of naughty time after I toggle it off.
