Yep.
I also live life one quarter mile at a time.

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. ;)

Dreezy562 02-27-2011 05:01 PM

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. :icon17:

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.

bigrob126 02-27-2011 05:44 PM

Start button.....and VDC off!! every time! always in all of my cars! I like the car to do what I WANT it to WHEN I want it to :) but....."A man's GOT to know his limitations!......AND his cars ;)

Pretty much this.

b1adesofcha0s 02-27-2011 05:53 PM

Hmmm, I haven't turned it off yet because I've been afraid of losing control and crashing. I think I will try it out today on my way home from work. Don't wanna do anything too crazy, just wanna get a feel of the car.

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

I suppose if you've never driven a fast RWD car with no electronic support the Z can seem scary (please no WS6 stories). Just remember to be careful if you don't have experience, especially in colder climates with summer tires.
