VSA on or off

Do you guys drive with the VSA set in the on or off position? does VSA affect gas mileage?

leave it on all the time unless stuck in mud or ice
read your owner manual for special operation

doesnt hurt your mileage

Technically it's always "on", but it's only fully active when the light is off. I only ever turn it off (light on) when I'd like to do a run from stop.

only hurts on launch in drag racing--as it applies brake to the spinning side
