You wrecked a car you were test driving? Sounds like the owner is being pretty laid-back about it, since you can apparently still type.

best traction control is between the two ears. obviously yours is turned off.

as for your is there a big difference. yes
one is on one is off, the VSC doesn't compensate for stupidity
