any fuse to pull to turn off traction crap

i was out a little while ago in town some kid did a small power break in a z-28. So i was like shit, i can do that. turned of the traction (esp) and gave it some gas with my foot on the brak, the car started to light up the rear tires (BOTH :)) then the little caution thing statted to flash and it put the brakes back on. I mean you can actulley hear the brakes grabbing each side to give the car traction again.... However i was wanting to smoke the tires and was not impressed when some electronical jack ass cutting off all my fun......<br> <br> I know on my supra i can pull a fues and it will take care of the 156mph speed limitor. That and in a auto supra you can pull the track fuse and it makes the car shift like a race car.<br> <br> Do any of you know any trick?

that's weird - I thought when ESP is off, it's OFF - is that normal?

It automatically turns on at any slipping over 8mph.

That sucks.

So there is no way in hell to turn it all the way off. There has to some trick, i mean every time motor trend test a 55 or 430 they have them crossed up smoking the tires. Mine will let you spinn about 3 feet then start swiching tires and cutting the power :( They just need a OFF switch. My 94 500 SL would blister the tires, hell it was like a old big block car.....

It can be turned off 100%.

MKB has a programmed chip that does it. The chip is going to cost you at least $1000.
