Slippin controls.....
I have a question that hasn't been brought to attention (according to my searching )
I see that our new Lexus's offer Vehicle Skid Control as well Traction control....
Whats are the differences between them along with Limited Slip Differential?????
Thanks.

TC = is for acceleration in the rain or snow. When engaged, this device "senses" when a driving tire has no traction, and attempts to compensate by slowing the wheel movement. This is good for getting traction in an area where it may normally be hard to do so (i.e. snow, gravel, rain). Traction Control was developed in Formula One racing to control wheel spin as cars travelled through turns and on slick surfaces (oil) allowing consistent application of power and maintenance of control.
