I turned off the Traction Control on my 2016 supercharged GT! Good Golly Miss Molly! It became an "Un-Guided Missile"! Yikes! 
I floored it from a stand still & it was very clear that it was never going to get traction or even stay on the road unless I let off on the throttle! I've run scores of fast cars sideways in burnout, but this one was going to throw me & its saddle in the ditch before the 9 seconds was over! What a beast without traction control. I can see that with some big sticky tires in will be an 11 second car! My Dear, 73 year old wife giggled as she hammered it on a back desert road up to 120 MPH. She's always liked fast cars!
Someone needs to explain the difference in the steering modes? What are the specific deferences!
