Turn off Traction Control (holding button for 3-5 sec) give you more power less ECU control more driver control, therefor should give you more power not less.

You will need to be more alert and aware of what you and the car are doing. I wouldn't suggest turning it off in the rain.

It does not actually raise your horse power at all, it just provides the power to the wheels your right foot asks for. With all of the TCS and VSC in to on position it will fluctuate power to the wheel allowing the car to develop traction. With practice you can increase your 60 foot times quite a bit over the ECU controlled drivetrain.

It's very important to remember to only turn the driver aids off in a safe location. Without the aids you can find yourself in trouble real fast.

There is no difference in power between the modes, but when the assists are on, if you approach the limits if traction, if will back it off so you dont break the tires loose, and it will not do that with the controls off.

I don't know if it's just me but I quickly pressed the TRAC Off button and nothing happened. If I hold it everything is off and if I press the VSC button it changes that to sport but I can' t seem to get the option to just turn of traction control. When I tried I was at a standstill so I don't think that was the problem.

Press both at the same time for 5 seconds. Proceed to spin out in the rain!

You only need to press the traction button and hold it for 5 seconds. No need to press and hold the VSC button too.

If you want to prevent it from automatically reengaging at 31mph, you must press and hold both.

Listen, if you are not use to driving a car with no traction control or stability control, don't do it. Don't turn anything off.

I don't wanna see an other wrecked FRS, i'm just going to leave it at this.

If you wanna turn it off, turn it off in a safe and empty location where no one else but you is present.
