Possibly looking at getting a Fiesta ST Mk7

Just wondering how effective the "torque vectoring" system is in wet/damp conditions? Is it capable of pulling the car out of bends in 2nd/3rd relatively smoothly like an LSD would or would you still need to carefully modulate the throttle to avoid axle tramp etc.?

Cheers,

Mark

Ha, suspected as much laugh had a test drive a couple days ago and was very close to breaking traction even in the dry, guess it's part of the appeal of the car...
