Poll about vdc on/off....

buddahson · 07-24-2011, 10:28 AM

I voted that I leave it on. However there are times when I turn it off. For a while I tried my best to drive in a manner that would not cause the traction control light to flash. After a while I turned off VDC and was able to control the car just how I wanted. I had grip when I wanted and could break the rear loose when I wanted. That said, I only do it if I'm really paying attention. Its too easy to give it a bit too much gas when you're half asleep or something. Oh, and leave it on for a while after getting a car wash. The tires get slick, lol.

Off. Force of habit at this point.

For what it's worth, I'm 34yrs old, and have over 26k miles on my OEM Bridgestones, with plenty of tread to go. So it's not like I'm fishtailing around everywhere. I just prefer to drive the car that I paid for. If I wanted more input about my driving, I'd bring my girlfriend along with me.
