What I am worried about is having the car slip at times and places where I least expect it and catches me off guard. I downshifted to 3rd today, braked a little past the pedestrian line and then took a hard left today with a Pontiac tailing me and the green left turn arrow was turning yellow. I heard the tires screech at that point, I was going pretty fast, I just don't know what the limit is before the car will spin out. |
If the roads are dry, and your tires are not bald, and you aren't doing 70MPH it is pretty hard to totally lose control with VDC on. It might be possible depending on the road but you would have to be doing something incredibly stupid. The whole point of VDC is to keep you from being an idiot once you start to slip.

In the rain I always leave VDC on, and I have had several incidents where I lost traction, whether due to road condition, other drivers, or even that one time where I got stuck out in the rain on damn near bald tires on my way to Discount Tire. VDC and ABLS are doing their best, but they can only correct for so much. There is no substitute for experience - I have practiced evasive maneuvers in huge empty parking lots during the rain more than once. You don't want that first big mistake to be too big. BTW, I believe ABLS (IIRC, Active Limited Braking System) is still active even with VDC off. It can easily be overcome with medium throttle. |

VDC off is completely different. If you don't drive with it off, you don't know. |

I think I know what VDC cutting in feels like, I have done canyon runs with it off and on, no difference in time, no difference in experience(my first canyon run with VDC off in fact was an accident, I forgot I turned it off and I did the run thinking it was on the entire time) |

Can your experience brake each wheel individually…?? :rolleyes: |
