Default IS THERE ANYWAY TO OVERRIDE THE TRACTION CONTROL ??

I hate how it turns the traction control on after 32 mph. it sucks trying to dive hard into a turn and it cuts the power cuz of a little slipping, i got it to turn on at 63 around a turn and it sucks!!!

hold on to the vsc button under the mirrors control for 5 sec until you see the vsc light then you're set and it won't turn back on

It resets every time you turn off the ignition. You just have to hold the button again each time you start the car and want to turn it off.

BTW, there are two lights: the first that pops on immediately is the traction control being turned off, then the light 5 seconds later is the VSC OFF light.

i turned my trac and VSC off and took a freeway onramp at about 60mph... the trac light started going crazy flashing and stuff.

It was pretty awesome.
