Can you turn off ABS?

I may be missing something simple, and we've talked a lot about VDC, but can you turn off ABS? What if you wanted to skid your Z in a 180?

You can probably just pull the fuse for it.

The ABS fuse is fused together with two other fuses

you can pull the fuse module for the abs but it will not help you in any way. I got two flat spots in my rear tires from just a 30 mph stop. Removing the module also disables your speedometer...
