Is it me or do you find ASC killing your speed in the corners? I would much rather spin an inside tire than feel all the power go away...

jmardy.

I have to agree. I love taking the right handers fast, but when I go to power out of the turn, I get half power and the yellow light a-flashin...

Would almost be cool to have the ASC/DSC switch on the steering wheel, to change it 'on the fly'. I enjoy the safety it offers, it's already kept me on the pavement in a slide situation... but certain controlled corners just beg to be screamed through...
