So I've had my 86 for a week. I have loved every minute of driving it. But I am so scared of daring to push these buttons!

I am not entirely fearful of me not being able to handle the car. I have had professional driver training. Its more that these buttons would seem to cause the car to behave so differently.

I have had a blast running through the hill roads, and it feels so planted, such a go kart. And I cant help but think the amount of times I would have fallen off the road if it wasn't for these electronic aides. It does allow me a little slip, but very little. I can definitely feel when its kicking in, and see/feel it when its majorly interrupted power to the wheels.

Is anyone out there actually daring enough to turn these off on public roads? I have seen threads of crashed cars that usually starts with "so I turned TSC off".

I may eventually take it to the state track and give it a go, other than that I am sticking to, hell no!
