yeah i heard you're only supposed to turn off the TC if you're stuck, b/c then it'll just burn up your brakes and keep detuning ur engine...

 

Traction control uses your brakes to stop the tire from "spinning out" it uses the same system as your anti lock brakes. its just extra software.

 

It also pulls timing and reduces fuel.

 

in order to "stage" it, turn off TC, leave it in drive or put it in first with O/D off, pull the e-break and go as far down as you can on the break pedal, rev the engine to about 1500 rpm or so then let off the e-break first then the breaks right as that comes down if you have an auto, if you have a stick just rev and dump, the green light is saying that trac is active.

 

When i was at the track i left Overdrive on, should i have it off for better times??

 

Do you hit 4th gear in the 1/4?

 

yes you should. unless u have gears and a tune

 

I have 3:73's and i cant remember if i hit 4th gear it was a while ago.

 

Well if what he says is true, yes you need O/D on or else your ganna rev out 3rd and quit.

 

How far does third gear go with normal gears..cause i only hit 90 in 1/4
