I find it hard to believe that I'm drifting the damn car and still operating in the "range of safe driving according to the car's handling dynamics." This ain't no Vette or S2000, it's a luxury cruiser. If you ask me, the light should be flashing as soon as I lose grip. I lost grip in a big way yesterday with VSA on and I didn't see a flash. Theoretically speaking, if VSA was doing it's job, I wouldn't have lost grip in the first place.

VSA works. It works very well. It has saved my ass on more than one occasion. However, it cannot change the "LAWS OF PHYSICS" and it cannot cure the "DUMB ASS". Every one has the right to their opinion and this is mine.

love the VSA...is see it working all the time....i don't EVAR turn it off. Nice peice of mind!!
When it was all snowy over hear i could drive in a straight line down the road while everone else was drifitng around. The light would come on and off whenver i started to break loose. That is enough for me.
