Mine is off before I shift to second

but more importantly... i learned that I will never have every mode off on the street again and if i use it off road then i will make sure i put it back on ...

and for those who said they drive with it off everyday.... all i have to say is why? you never know when you might need the help of that, evne if your the best driver in the world

You're smart to keep it on for daily driving. The fact that I remember riding in cars that didn't have seatbelts doesn't mean I would do it now.

i just dont see the point in taking them off unless your specifically trying to fish tail or do donuts... is it the drivers fault if he spins out on unseeable black ice? No, so if he had them off the car will completely lose control, if the nannies are on you probably wont nearly as easily... it can happen in many other instances as well

No, you're right. You really should only turn them off when you're at the track.

On tap is all I will ever do. I turned it all off once and that was enough for me.

taking them off because you think your an expert driver is like opting to leave your firearm at home when taking a stroll through gangland at 3am because your a jujitsu master

Thanks for posting, glad you're ok! The nannies really are amazing- it's easy to take them for granted, but they work HARD to keep us in a straight line! Gotta respect the beast that is Camaro!

If you can't handle passing another car at 25mph without having all the driving aids to assist you maybe you're in the wrong car.
