Default Re: Traction control isn't completly off

If the TC is off and the ESP senses the car getting out of shape (lateral movement or any real yaw angle) the system will re-engage the TC. The only way to get real burnout style wheel spin is to disconnect the F3 50 A fuse (or wire going to the fuse) in the small fuse box on the right side under the hood. Doing that will fully disable the TC and the ESP systems.
Correction: you can spin the rears freely so long as you keep it under 4800(?) RPM.

W/ tc OFF, of course.
