BigMoneyWasters Posted February 17, 2019 Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 So I am thinking ahead towards my next build and I have an E46 in mind. I see E46s showing up more and more and I am curious whether or not the newer and smarter traction control systems interfering during races? The YAW sensor in the E46 is a fairly common failure, too. I recently saw a video of a new Corvette at a track day and OnStar kept coming on asking if everyone is OK!! Are you guys keeping all the ABS and Traction stuff on these builds??

Technical Advisory Committee Chris Huggins Posted February 17, 2019 Technical Advisory Committee Report Share Posted February 17, 2019 event the E46 traction control isnt good enough to be a benefit in a racing situation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogtired Posted February 18, 2019 Report Share Posted February 18, 2019 Our 95 E36 has something called ASC +T. It was a one off for that year with the winter package I believe. It can not be unplugged because it is tied into the DME and the ABS. If we don't push the button on the dash to mute it, the +T will apply the rear brakes if it senses wheel spin. We raced it this way for two seasons before we figured it out..... explains some of why we were getting walked coming off corners....... Do your research...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we put our cheaty M54 engine in, we sent our DME off to a guy out west that deleted theft, and changed the Rev limiter as well as a couple of other things that escape me. Probably would do that with this one too, just to simplify things. Perhaps kill the traction control but keep ABS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
