I travel around the country doing seminars and talks for various car clubs about performance driving and instructor training, one topic that continually comes up is whether the "driver nannies" - traction and stability control systems - should be turned off or not, and what the pros and cons are of doing so are.David Ray, the founder of Hooked On Driving has a ton of know-how teaching high performance drivers, and putting on well-run events. He's a well-known, very experienced driver and instructor. And as you'll see from his article below, David has thought long and hard about the "driver nannies" issue. I'm doubtful that everyone will ever agree 100% on this topic, but I do believe that David makes some very good points.
