i only take my z on dry days, unless the temps are 50F and under it's turned off.
been driving FR for a while so i know my limits. i dont push it, but i dont like it dictating how my car behaves. |

I don't drive with it at the track where I push the car to it's absolute limits hence I don't ever drive with it on the street. Yes it will rob you of power in turns if you push it.... besides, sometimes it's fun to kick it out a bit.
When it rains... always with it on. |
Had an incident the other day... a very familar corner for me on the way home from badminton, it's a sweeping 270 degree loop on to a freeway, anyway in my previous car this would be a perfectly safe place where i'd floor the car in 3rd gear on the way out of the loop to get up to speed of the freeway traffic.
It was a wet day, in third gear, i did three quarter throttle in 3rd... and the vdc light went crazy... just to think, if it had been off, i would have scraped the right side of my rear bumper... never in my wildest dreams would i have thought that this car would break traction in that situation... Two learnings that day... 1. this car is a damn powerful car and I being new to this level of power need to take the car on to a skid pan and learn to control it, 2. don't turn vdc off... |

On.... Its always on for a reason... Plus I don't think I could control this beast with it off... :tup:

I never turn it off.
the most pre Z powerfull I drove was a 250hp megane CC and that was FWD + http://i205.photobucket.com/albums/b...5f70eb948c.jpg |
ON, if you have any doubts search or crashes or accidents on the forum. A majority of crashes where Z's were not hit by other drivers were caused by mishandling with the VDC off! I personally don't like VDC interfering with my spirited driving buy I don't want my car in the shop either.

basically ill put it this way... when driving w/ it on do you often see yellow squiggly lines poping up in the dash? if so - you are sliding and you should probably keep it off... however - if you have gotten used to driving it with the slip light off then i dont see why you cant turn off VDC and do the same... it is a learning tool which teaches you how far you can push your car...
