Kypez how do you get it to slide at all, my wifes dsc is so aggressive it cuts in before anything can happen in that regards and i cant find a way to switch it off.
Exactly! My XR8 is such a pain as well with the little cars have a 700 kilo weight advantage.

I have to admit, I've only ever driven the car when slightly damp so that helped slide it before the mentioned DSC kicks in. I gotta find the fuse for it. But hopefully that doesnt cause the car to not drive (failsafes).
