Traction Control

Has anyone tried the Racelogic Traction Control unit?

Appeals to me for North Weald!!

yep I fitted it on a cerbie, vowed never to do it again. the DOS software is a joke to anyone like me who thinks bill gates is heaven sent. the wiring harness pulled apart on a european tour. the set-up proceedure at racelogic involves you driving along the nearby by-pass whilst you find the next roundabout to power slide around while a racelogic employee tweeks the settings until you spin, not ideal conditions for keeping you points-free.
much better to do a handling course and learn about your car methinx.

I'm intrigued as I've chatted with RaceLogic about getting it fitted to my Chim, I've also had a few good chats with the guys at TVR services as well. As of yet no final decision but really would like the benefit of TC when on the odd commute and singing along - just too many numpties around...

Have just seen that Motorvation Motorsport talk about Omex TC - just no info on it yet...

Also advise the training route as electronics can't replaced mental ability all the time..

Cheers

Tc works fine on my Ultima. It did take about 3 weeks to get the setting spot on but after that it has been fine. I admit the factory is crap. They sell you the kit then expect you to sort the rest out even after several calls. However, you I can now power out of junctions etc in the wet with no worries. I love it and that is with 525bhp , 540ft/lb and 950kg

Hope this helps
