Another experience with VDC turned off and loosing traction. This time I actually had completely forgotten that I had turned the VDC off! DOH!
There was a car stopped in the fast lane on the freeway. I wasn't able to change lanes before catching up to it and completely stopping. When I had a chance I went into the carpool lane (and stepped on it to get up to traffic speed again) and the damn VDC kicked in during my accel. It pissed me off so I turned it off.
Around 20 minutes later I was picking up some food and heading home. I ended up turning left much sharper than usual as I had to wait for a car to go by turning left on a light that was turning red and the rear tires lost grip again:
It could just be me but it seems like recovering from this in the 370Z is a lot easier than other cars I have driven (like a 280Z). I am guessing because the fact it has a LSD?
