Got caught in heavy rain last week and since it was late at night and no cars were around I decided to try and break the rear end loose - the car corrected itself, I don't even think I had to turn the wheel. I was truly amazed. Yes the car could be faster without it - but i did not buy the car for quickness alone.

It must be REAL HARD to lose control in a SRT.

 

nice to know ,we haven't had rain for like 2 mo...
wonder how this thing will go in the Snow ?

i drove the Dragon saturday the car responded fine
can't really go too fast their though.

 

Was this with the traction control on or 'off'??

 

I was curious to experiment with this as well. My region usually gets about 5 inches of rain a month, but we haven't had any measurable rain since I bought the car almost 3 months ago. I think we are currently 17 inches below normal for the year. I can't even wash my car. If you are seen using a water hose to clean your car, they fine you $100 on the spot. I've been keeping the car clean with a car duster and spray detailer. My car hasn't had a "bath" in 6 weeks.

 

Traction control on.

 

If we ever had a ban like that I would be glad I added a hose bib to my water softener in my garage. That door would never open until the concrete was dry. Keeping it clean for six weeks without water, now that's a crossfire owner.

Living in the great northwest, I get the opportunity to utilize the wet traction control on a regular basis...worst part is washing the car and detailing the wheels after any wet weather driving! I can say without a doubt my car would still run in the 13's in the wet-when you pin it from a stop and feel/hear the ESP working, it is a trip-things spin/happen left, things spin/happen right, then you get pinned in the seat until 2nd gear change, then things start happening left & right, then pinned into the seat 'till 3rd! For all the shortcomings of the Crossfire, having the ESP for wet conditions is a definite plus (now if I could just get it to shut off entirely when I wanted)!
