Adjustable TC so you even had degrees of coolness

i almost lost it in my 350 full throttle shifting into 2nd on a slight bend TC brought it back and made it look like i'd drifted it a bit

There's a fuse you can pull which turns it off, knocks off your abs as well though
Ah Cool

i used to turn it off everytime i got in my focus.
was useless, even in the snow.
maybe good for old grannies but for people who actually like driving quite enthusiastically, it's just pants.

The TC on mine is actually not bad on mine when driving in the wet, after 1st gear anyway as that just bogs

The TC in mine is a pritty good system, you dont know its doing it thing most of the time so i usely leave it on. I turn it off when go for a spirited drive though. I just love how much traction my car has out of bends

i feel i cant have a spirited drive anymore due to increase in trafrfic, speed cameras, police and amateur drivers/retartds on the road that have NIL observation skills.
so i just drive like a grandad these days :-(
its such a shame because i did actually used to like driving. now its such a bore.
i might sound like a pensioner, but im only 26 lol
8 years may not sound much, but the roads were a lot clearer and fun to drive on, 8 years ago.

I don't need traction control as I have little to no torque anyway
