lock the center diff and get back to me next time it snows...it can do it.
So does that mean the VSC can be shut off, or that you have just managed to exceed it's limits?

Ok, on my very fun exit off the interstate that I always attack as hard as possible, i always cut across the white line and get close to the cement devider on the right side. Well today, at about 65 i came off the highway and was apexing the turn. There was a 6foot 2x4 laying directly across the shoulder with nails sticking out of it. I swirved, tapped the brakes and corrected. TRAC/VSC kicked in and totally straightened my truck out with me not having to do much but steer. Was awesome. Truck just replanted itself after i made the evasive manuver. Now, that type of manuver i did would be something you would do on the highway when someone slams on the brakes when your not expecting it. I smiled and said to myself, ill have to post this on 'mud later in that which is safer thread.
Put em in the 2000+ and dont look back.
Oh my god....if I would have wrote this the 100/Shotts-haters would have posted up a storm. They be pointing out what expert drivers they were and would say that electronic stuff is for wusses and has no place in their vehicles.
Of course, what I would say in this case is that it's not a damn Porsche, drive it like the 2+ ton, high CoG vehicle that it is.
here is my .02 worth i smashed my 99 b/c it had no trac cont (heavy rain bimmer clipped my front bumper coming into my lane spun out hit guard rail) i miss the quality on te old one but the peace of mind with all the extras is worth it besides that the newer ones have side air bags but i think they came 05 or newer.
I used to drive a '91 911, no traction control or stability systems. Only very basic ABS. Ive had to correct that on some hairy turns, takes much more finesse and driver control over the LX to keep planted at the outer limits of its performance capibilities.
my 2004 has side air bags and side curtain air bags.
BTW, I join you in drinking from the 911 Kool-Aid!
VSC is automatically disabled when the CDL is locked. I didn't figure that out until after playing in the snow. It's too @#$% cold to snow here right now, but I'll be out playing next time it does.
My name is Cary, and I have a Porsche problem. It seems to be a common disease. I have a 964 C2 on the shopping list.
