Was wandering, how safe is it to drive fast with DTC off.I noticed that wen i turn off DTC, the warning sign comes on.I've also not had the guts to drive fast on public roads with DTC off, anyone can share how it feels like before i try it so tt i kinda know e limit before i push it.I'm pretty sure it would oversteer but how dramatic wld it be n can e back throw out of control on WOT.Tried e 350z and e rear throw quite a bit on throttle coming out of corners and needed counter steering, would it be the same on the 325 sports.It might be abit different for 320 tho coz i dun think that there's insufficient power to power out of a corner hence e 325 might have some diff handling characteristic here.So in essence, if you've any experiences do share it.btw, i've already turned off DTC n done donuts and also hand brake turn maneuvers w/out pulling e HB....fun fun.....
 
My experience during the BMW Driver's Training, oversteer or understeer of the car, you have to handle yourself without the aid of the computer. Pandai pandai la you manoeuvre the car:rolleyes:

Bro, if you've already turned off DTC and done donuts and hand-brake turns, you would already have a much better idea of the E90's limits than most of us, certainly me. Those RFTs are too darn expensive to willfully leave on the tarmac like that :)

Dun worry bro, now hv second hand RFTs for sale 1 mah....put them one b4 going for those adventures routine!
 
Sounds like E60fanster really punished his loaner 17" RFTs + wheels before swapping them to his 19's shod with PS2s. kakaka
 
My advise is never turn off DTC or DSC while driving especially in city driving. Turning off the traction control only when you "have" fun with no other cars around and make sure the road is wide enough.

I have recently tried 370z, turining off VDC is a nightmare... A lot of super car owner thot they can drive very well but they hv forgotten that the computer is working very hard to keep the car on track and while giving you some drift action.... For me, SAFETY come first!

And i thought he was doing donuts with his brand new 19s and tyres.
