lol, where do you guys come up this stuff? the "nannies" are passive systems. they only come on in certain situations. the traction control, for example, only comes on when a wheel looses traction. all other times it is off. the stabiltract only comes on when, to make it simple, your car is moving in a direction different from which the wheels are pointing.
when you hold the button in you aren't turning the "nannies" off, as they are off 99.9999% of the time anyway. what your doing is disabling them where they will not come on in situations where they otherwise would. it's no different than ABS. 99.99999% of the time it will never come on and will not effect the performance of your car.
that's what makes it so laughable to hear how people hop in their car and immediately turn them off. under normal driving they aren't going to come on, and will have no effect whatsoever on your car. the only real reason to turn them off is for the purpose of spinning wheels, drifting, or doing burnouts. if your not going to do those things, or drive in some other reckless fashion, then they'll never come on and you car wont drive any differently.
I highly recommend some of you guys actually read up on how these things work and precisely what they do before you go and disable them thinking they're somehow holding your car back and you'll gain HP and handling by disabling them
