Questions about VDC..

You gain the ability to let the tail slide out, and you gain full control of the car, where as VDC is cutting throttle and can make it unpredictable. You can't run a decent 1/4 time or 0-60 or with VDC on and you can't peel out with it on. The Z is actually really good when the back brakes loose, its not a car thats out of control you can really get it back in line by letting off the throttle and steering, and I'm not a great driver at all

i disagree, i can peel out just fine with VDC on XD

@OP VDC is there to protect you in case you get into a situation you cant handle, for street driving, i dont see why people are turning it off unless they are acting like ricers and are street racing >_>

for the track, i can understand turning it off, but then again the track is a more predictable environment then the streets are, imo leave VDC on when street driving, turn it off when tracking

That is pretty much what I was thinking... thanks for the info.
