so yeah driving my friends rsx through my neighborhood at like 2 tonight (yeah i know its really dumb) and well i was driving like its my own personal race track. anyways i started getting really deep into some corners and i noticed the abs kicking in. and well i felt like i was gonna slide right off the road i felt it nto want to stop.

anyways how do you guys feel on abs you like it, you dont?

also are you supposed to pump abs for actuatly stop?

anyways is it possible to just flip a switch and turn off the abs(on nice cars)?

also do any gt's come with abs? i know for a fact that gt-fours come with it.

I don't know why some of you guys don't like ABS on the track... but I really like it. With ABS... you can brake harder, later, and not worry about lock-ups during late braking. It's a good system, although not all ABS work the same...
