ESP- Do you or Dont you

[blink172]

Morning all, just started running in my 172 and wondered if people use the ESP function or look at it as a cheat option for poor drivers? Is is any good, and does the traction control interfere to much?

its cool for normal driving and if your not too advanced it can compensate for less than ideal conditions, it also makes you feel quite safe with it on.. which of course you are.. ive gone around corners very quickly with it on, i can feel it working (not too much) and only when you come to power out of a corner does it annoy as it seems to control your traction and you loses power. turn it off and the car is i think, much quicker and with much more steering feel.

Will give it a go tonight. IMHO the entire road network should be coated with that non slip surface, the traction on that stuff when pulling way in such fun.

Oh and as for Induction noise, geez, what a sound.
