Does anyone know if Vince would tune it to "off" on start up if they were willing to sign a waiver?

You know "I waive all rights and accept responsible for any outcome and only plan on using my vehicle at the track". I like abs and I don't mind t/c as long as it can be turned off but I CANNOT STAND stability control, especially on this car! With both off I can still feel a cut in power in some instaces.

The big thing is in turns, I take most corners hard and if the road is a lil rough the computer kicks in and its pretty frightening.
Recently the county chipped the roads and I happened to find out that they started at the middle of a sweeping turn. So here I am just cruising around it not flying and I didn't turn off the nannies. Boom. Chips, tires start pushing nothin bad and then the stm steps in and the car starts straighting out around the turn.. my thought wasn't "I'm gonna crash" it was "Fing stm is gonna kill me". Luckily it was towards the end of the turn and I wasn't going that fast but had there been no stability control I wouldn't have broken a sweat.

Anyway I'm done with my diatribe. Just wondering if Vince might touch the system if it was for an "off road" setup and with a waiver. I know no one wants to be on the receiving end of a lawsuit.

For decades Corvette lead the nation for single car fatal crashes. Over a decade ago Corvette added Active Handling to the repertoire of features and since then has had to defer to other cars taking the lead in single car fatal crashes. (Active Handling is what the two words together means.)

All this to say it may be possible but I do not see anyone who knows how to do it actually doing it in return for compensation.

Just my opinion.

I can understand the o.e.m going that route for the avg put er in drive and go operator which is fine but for someone that is able to contol their vehicles the interference is very dibilatating. It changes the dybamics of the vehicle in a critical period, not good. Worse still that driver now loses the ability to control how they crash (if anyones raced a motor vehicle they will understand that statement). The driver is now largely at the mercy the car.... I've seen almost as many bmws in the ditch as I've seen chevy trucks during the winter to confirm my point.

Then again its just my view so what's good for me may be detrimental to the. Gernral public..

At any rate thanks for the info LaborSmith
