heres a little tidbit I think yall should know. The blackbox that records information about a crash can only be used for R&D, the insurance company cant do anything with that information. I do believe that if theres a fatality that information can be used against you but thats it.

How fast were you "casually" going along?

Had it off, entered a turn, rear started to rotate, slight lift with no correction and it just planted and went.

Yes, I think the majority of drivers should keep it on, but for those with some experience, you can do so much more with it off.

I like having it as an option, mostly to assist in climbing slippery surfaces but other than that it is off. Fortunately tapping it once will toggle the system, unlike these new cars where you have to hold the damn button down

.

You have to hold it to disable both VSC and TSC.

I was going like speed limit 45-50 in a 45. Was going around a slight bend,I had plenty of experience drifting it on public roads when it was wet out. Its just when your least expecting it anything can happen. NO need to hear any comment from the safety police this was years ago I'm not that dumb anymore.
