Beastronix just takes the fun out of it .

Anyway, I was referring to the shortest routine without having to buy any mods .

so is that mean if you just use 3 sec to turn off traction control, it will be more dangerous? because last week i drive in buttonwillow, it is rainy and i only drive 60 mph in riverside, but i was spinning out, i dont know what happened.( i use 3 sec turn off)

This depends on the driver really. If you're familiar with the factory nannies to the point that you can anticipate the changes the car will make on its own, you'll be fine.

I personally want my car to respond to my inputs and not surprise me suddenly with brake adjustments or throttle changes. I'm so used to having this with the pedal dance that the 3 second hold on track scares me. It also slows you down once you've reached limits of car control.

I want to get a Beastronix because I don't want to have to wait for the car to warm up.

That being said, *cough* Mike *cough*

1. Start engine with hand and foot brake engaged
2. 2x foot brake & hold
3. 2x hand brake & hold
4. 2x foot brake

Probably everyone know this, but the Open Flash Tablet has a button in the diagnostics that enables Pedal Dance Mode quickly

Tried this yesterday at an AutoX and was immediately slower, unable to stop properly. I'm unsure if I'm actually relying on abs (though it would have to be far more subtle than it is when I know I've tripped it) or something else is going on. I did get the stopping action I expected occasionally with the pedal dance, and no tire noise, suggesting they weren't locked up.

I'll give it a try without abs next event and see how that changes things.

I'm going to presume your faster with nannies because it's doing the work. Word of advice, learn to drive with them off. Otherwise you're kidding yourself when I comes to driver quality.

I didn't know what you meant by the Beastronix until I found this post. Interesting and I really like the fan option. Also interesting we're apparently bad drivers if we don't do the pedal dance, lol.

The time of day when you tried it was the same time that the weather reverted and everyone saw a blip in their times. Maybe try it again a couple runs in a row? I'm interested to know what happens, because comments here aside we both know one of the top drivers in our class does the dance and the other doesn't. (AFAIK)
