Ferrari
Ready to race!
- Location
- Mississauga, ON
Car: 2016 Golf R, 6-speed manual, stock
Launching the car on snow with the ESC / TC turned off (holding the button down for 3 sec), I notice that the rear wheel(s) are slowed down momentarily. I don’t think the traction control is intervening (since it’s turned off). I guess this is due to the XDS+ applying the brake on one side forcing the torque to the opposite wheel via the open diff? Poor man’s torque vectoring? Weird...
