Everytime I crank my car I hit the off button. I wouldn't do it in the rain, but I never drive mine in the rain. I do take driving serious though even if it is just to cruise. My feet and hands are my VDC.

Never really understood all the hooplah surrounding VDC off. I turned it off quite a bit and never had any issues. A car is like a gun. It's not going to rocket out of control as long as you don't pull the trigger.

I agree with this 100%. I am usually to lazy to take mine off but did today and didn't notice a difference.

True

so what if you aim the gun and then shoot?

ya in the rain seems stupid if its easy as it is to spin them on dry pavement.

Well, then 99% of the time you'll go in the intended direction of travel.

I usually kept VDC off 75% of the time in the dry because I found it to be pretty intrusive. In the rain, though, I liked to leave it on as a little bit of an insurance policy.

i usually turn my VDC off after hard day at work. Its sure does relieve stress! Coming off those corner just feels exhilarating.
