Traction Control Sucks

MAYBE ITS JUST ME BUT I DONT LIKE THE TRACTION CONTROL EVEN WHEN YOU TURN IT OFF IT WILL STILL NOT LET YOU DO MUCH. ME AND A FRIEND WENT TO DO SOME DONUTS AND IT WOULD GO HALF WAY AROUND THAN JUST DIE. I DID THIS ABOUT 3 TIMES THEN JUST SAID THE HELL WITH IT AND WENT HOME

Its not that then engine doesn't have enough power. Its the computer shutting the engine down cause it thinks it is losing traction. On my 06 R/T, if you hold down the ESP button for 5 seconds you hear a chime. I think this disengages the traction control fully. Haven't tried to do any donuts though.

Its in your manual, but you need to hold the esp button for at least 10 seconds, and you will hear a chime, and you will see ESP IS DISSABLED in the instrument cluster.

You cant be moveing when you do this, and if you are you have to be under 20mph. Its best to be stopped completeley, then follow previous steps.

I tried it before I shifted out of park. Also, I think the 2005 don't have the feature. Can anyone confirm?
