It's not really a problem. There certain times, like in the snow, where you want to lock up the wheels. With the wheel lock up and wheel spin, you can lose traction and have fun. With ABS, there's just enough grip to make it boring.

eh, flick the wheel to one direction and punch the gas for a second... you get the same effect of loosing traction

let me know how that "pulling the plug on the ABS" thing pans out

leeden · 01-26-2005, 11:00 AM

That is true and it's what I've been doing. I had the DCCD biased to the rear to make the front brake easier.

However, you do stop faster without ABS in the snow. The fuse is in the engine bay but I haven't had a chance to look for it.

criz · 01-26-2005, 11:04 AM

have you tried 50/50 yet? you can drift forever with it like that!

leeden · 01-26-2005, 11:10 AM

50/50 is very stable. I've only done little drifts. The lots I use are small abandoned parking lots with weeds growing out of the cracks.

I was disappointed to find no new snow this morning. I was going to get up early to play.

My fuse is behind the coin tray in the dash. I pulled it last night b/c I heard it was going to snow... I had the same problems last week, but my blizzaks just came in so I hope these problems will just go away...

criz · 01-26-2005, 12:37 PM
