Traction Control...on/off on the 1/4 mile? - 7/9/2006 5:32:30 PM    Viper/Saleen1   Posts: 153 Joined: 3/6/2006 Status: offline Never had this "beautiful option" before and don't want to damage anything. If one were to go on the track, would this be kept on or off? Straight-line acceleration I don't think I'll need it, but on a road course that would be fine. Post #: 1

I recommend a module that will keep the traction control in what ever position you want it. As it stands now, the "default" option is ON. Every time you start the car, it will go on no matter what you had it set at when you last turned of the ignition. Two companies make them as far as I know: http://www.ponyexpressperformance.com/tractioncontrol.html $52.95 (includes shipping) I can't find the other one right now. Takes an hour to install and worth it. Peace out. _____________________________ #02-0014 The Jazzers egomaniacal road trip down look-at-me lane ***updated 7/14*** (in reply to Viper/Saleen1) Post #: 3

Keep it on in bracket for consistency. Keep it off for low et. _____________________________ 2006 Saleen SC Silver #458 2002 911-sold to buy Saleen 2003 S2000-sold 1997 SVT Cobra-sold 1988 GT-sold 1986 Cobra (Canadian)-sold (in reply to Jazzer The Cat) Post #: 4
