And now begins the debate as to which is faster; Accelerating smoothly with no wheelspin, or controlled slipping of the tires. Exhibit A: YouTube - Drag Race! 2012 Nissan GT-R vs 2011 Chevy Corvette Z06 vs 2011 Shelby GT500

I never said that I couldnt et the rear of the car to come out. All I'm saying is that if you know what it feels like to get a car sideways and keep it there with NO traction control, VDS, ABS an what ever other driving assists their are. And u get in a z and try it it is a world of difference. I can hands down feel the traction control kick in. Wether it's the abs applying a little brake to control it or it's killing power Idk but u def can feel it.

I mostly leave it on, but turn it off once in a while. It has its uses. For example, the other day a guy in a G35 turns right on red right in front of me (plenty of room behind, but nooooo), then stops with his left signal on 'cause he wants to move over into the next (logjammed) lane. I simultaneously whipped it around him on his right, redlining it, honking the horn and flipping him off. With VDC off, I'd probably have to skipped either the redline engine note, the horn, or the finger. It would have been tragic!

Because VDC is more interesting than cabin noise?
