So I have a question: even after switching ESC off by holding the button for 10-seconds, I’m still feeling the brakes/ESC intervening. Part of it is trail braking into the apex and lifting my inside rear tire. Taking curb also gets the wheels off the ground and is the biggest culprit. My first session at VIR I brainfarted and forgot to switch ESC off and that absolutely smoked the brakes on track.
I also want my VAQ diff to lock up faster so I can go to gas quicker heading into the apex of corners. I would like to maintain ABS if possible. My right foot will act as traction control.
Most of what I’ve read is for the drag strip. HPDE folks, what do you advise?
