Off in the dry. On in the wet. It saved my bacon today in the rain when boost hit on the highway.

When you want to drift turn it off. With my worn out tires I drifted for a couple of days before putting new ones on. The vsc is a little to aggressive for me but on most of the time

I'll give that shot as see how that goes. Hopefully I could get the sensors through work
