MTrack mode - Page 2

I think I understand now,it is optimised for fast smooth lap times,
I just don't like the way it intervenes so early and upsets the balance of the car when pushing on.

Thanks all for the replies

I would clarify that I have yet to try my car with Cups on, so it might be far less intrusive with more grippy tyres, but with the Michelin Super Sports, it is a joy to drive with DSC switched off, but having owned a 515bhp rwd Cosworth, with only 235 tyres on the back, I don't mind a bit of rear wheel steering

Im a complete novice when it comes to track but i was at brands last nite with billy and once i had my tuition and learnt the track i decided to try it with m track mode on and to be honest it helped me alot with my braking with regards to abs kicking in on hard braking. My front brakes are much stronger than my rears so at certain points i had abs kick in and throw me off cos i worried about it not allowing me to slow quick enough.i enjoyed it soo much and learnt alot too the car is great even for a novice

I use m track on the road when it's wet, otherwise I can't get out of junctions/roundabouts especially on a slight incline.
