What happens to a Lamborghini Gallardo when you switch traction control off?

[@Shmee150]

Turning ESC off can break your driveline too :). If you do hard acceleration especially with one tire skidding more than the others

[@Kacicka999]

ESP is not traction control... its STABILITY CONTROL....

I was also about to same thing

[@AdamSmith-tk5br]

[@hypershadow5g]

All stability control is traction control, but not all traction control is stability control. ESC uses some of the same, if not all of the same, depending on the implementation, of a traction control system.

[@resellworld]

[@veneziablau]

Leave ESP on when on public roads. Turn it off on the track if you want to try and be a hero and don't mind putting your car into the barriers.

[@DerSpanier86]

but what's the deal? is the car more responsive with the esc off? or what's the big deal? why all these video test of new cars are with the esc off ??

[@veneziablau]

Not more responsive, more uncontrollable unless in the hands of an actual trained professional driver.

[@ryfodrea]

It makes the throttle a bit less responsive when you accelerate from a stop to avoid wheel spin. It helps you get a better start if you're racing... but once ur going, I think traction control is better to have on because it also makes sure you dont over do the steering.

[@user-rl4go8lo4m]

Doesn't make a difference to pulling away, traction control slows the wheels down, slowing the car down, with it off you just spin the wheels with barely any traction, but the gallardo comes with launch control which allows some wheelspin but controls it to gain maximum grip.

[@ikarugaxx3749]

@@DerSpanier86 Switching off electronic aid allows professional-level drivers (and expert drivers, to a lesser extent) to go faster (as well as have more fun) than with it switched on. For the others, aid should always be on.

[@philipcooper8297]

ESP works the brakes, so the car doesn't spin. TCS cripples the ignition and injection system, to reduce the power to the driven wheels to prevent spinning.

[@robbin00]

Carlos Kratz is this the same as stability control?

[@Kneedragon1962]

Just let go the wheel when things get hairy? It is rather 'against every sense possible' yes, but since way before electronic stability control, it has been one of the more effective ways of saving it. The trick is to know when to let go, and when to get in charge again, and the problem with that, is if you know stuff like that, you most likely wouldn't have lost control in the first place.

[@neinerstrechtnicht6465]

so what's the right Moment then to let the Wheel off? as soon as possible after the first move?

[@MrTacticalGiant]

@@neinerstrechtnicht6465 still waiting for his responds

[@RysieX267]

@@MrTacticalGiant I don't know if it would actually work in normal circumstances or in a FWD car, but this technique is often used in drifting. They tend to turn the wheel, accelerate hard, release it briefly (the car will basically countersteer by itself) and further control it from that point. Then you can lessen the turn to slide more or leave it where it is, and the car will either straighten out (if you straighten the weel in time) or slide the other way (if you don't). From my personal experience, you will just feel when it's time to straighten the wheel, it simply takes some practice. Just be sure not to try it out on a public road, and remember that you have to control the gas pedal as well ;)

[@bourbonbuzzin2778]

ESP and TC are two different things but operate off the same wheel speed sensors along with ABS. TC cuts power while detecting wheel slippage while ESP applies brakes to various wheels individually, assisting in straightening the car back up while sliding.

[@Srinivas7]

Is it possible for a car to have only ESP without TC?

[@MiloFPS]

This is why professional racing is so overwhelming to 97% of people because everyone takes for granted ABS, traction control and steering assist, so going as fast as possible without all these, and using manual gear shifts every second, requires focus, multitasking and practice that is second to none

[@justaguynamedmax8207]

stability management systems are not traction control systems.

[@justaguynamedmax8207]

that is irrelevant. my point was it is stability management systems that keep a car from spinning out, not TCS. TCS keeps wheel spin to a minimum under acceleration.

[@jacktumbleweed]

ak operator is spot on. the key words are *traction* and *stability*. they do go hand in hand but are far from the same thing.

[@smartalmos95]

Esp and ABS systems saved my ass a lot .. Thank God they exist.

Great video, I had no idea stability control worked that well. Also you demonstrated perfectly how mid engine cars tend to just spin. I had a Pontiac Fiero in high school. A couple times I've lost control dodging deer/snow etc... Yet every time the car stayed in its lane and just spun like this^. It never veered off like fwd or rwd cars. Also people...

P.s: Traction control is used to enhanced driver control as throttle input applied is mis-matched to road surface conditions (due to varying factors) being unable to manage applied torque. Key part is 'manage applied torque), which means it is only active under acceleration.

[@allrock1238]

Should be titled "What happens when you turn the stability control system off" (never do this ) Traction control systems are designed prevent excessive wheel spin on acceleration and there are a few situations (honestly never encountered in a car like this) like climbing a grade in wet snow or a surface like mud where a skilled driver could make progress only with the traction control off or set to allow more slip (and the smarts to not loop the car into solid objects by controlling wheel spin and holding reasonable speed) most of the deaths in older supercars are caused by the exact issues shown above and even a highly skilled driver can not react and counter the issues of physics that electronic stability control system can handle ,(unless the car had method of side to side independent brake control with abs that the driver had direct reactive control over and I still drought they would be fast enough) ,, in truth the future will see 4 wheel reactive torque vectoring control systems (some of the 4 motor electric cars like the Rimac concept one already showcase them,, because these systems don't have to pulse control the brakes applying instant precise counter torque with an electric motor they can counter react faster "and" also change a cars "dynamic road handling response as well" the only time one would turn stability control off is when one had had the "intent" to demonstrate some skilled showcase driving that required an intentionally unstabilized car in a controlled environment. (a race track, not on public roads)

[@alexvillarreal3947]

i agreed with you

[@thaneonyou]

+Allrock123 i agree, most of the time etc and esc is confused for some reason and on a good note most cars that alow you to turn of esc it is only turning off etc and the only way to disable esc is pulling the relays for the abs system witch you should never do unless it is in a shop and you are testing things.

[@allrock1238]

There are evolutions to ESC that run well above the use of brakes ,, into whats called "intelligent Torque Vectoring" these systems can apply power or braking force dynamically over a hundred times a second,(usually using an electric motor driving each wheel) simply search rimac torque vectoring, give the car the ability to sense road position in relation to other cars and objects on might collide with these systems can use power to spin the car on its access and use vectored power even at extreme angles.

[@archon808]

I kinda think the autocar host should already know that rack and pinion steering cars (as a unintended side effect) auto correct a slide, or fishtail. You can literally let go of the steering wheel, and it seemely magically does the right thing, and the car straightens out. The front wheels are simply facing the direction that provides the least resistance, which happens to be in the direction of the mass of the vehicle, which is usually straight.

[@dimos47ki7]

i have ESP in my car and there is no OFF button. at the back of my mind this was always a disapointment, since i like some fast driving on empty twisty roads when i can... but after an early morning when the ESP saved me from hitting a curb and a lot of repair money because i was sleepy behind the wheel, i never said anything bad about it ever again... and it is not even disturbing on twisty roads, very well set up, at least at my car

+540iDavid Some cars you cant just turn the key from acc to ignition and start it after stalling it. You have to turn the key all the way to the off position then back on.

What happens to the gear box, as you spin, is there a possible to damage it?

[@TiqoEditHD]

why would it be damaged

[@lautarohunzicker]

Tiqo as it is spining in one direccion at a certain rpm speed and as the car spins the wheels spin in the opposite direccion and so does the gear box. seems like a lot of mechanical effort to the gears and components.

[@TiqoEditHD]

you know there is a clutch right? :p

[@lautarohunzicker]

Tiqo just in case it the clutch doesn't slip. clearly it didn't brake. just wondering if it's a possibility.

[@OhhItsKrafty]

Lautaro Hunzicker Well you could blow your diff. I'm sure it causes transmission damage as well. It's like putting the shifter in reverse while going down the highway. Bad idea..

[@jadtayoun6256]

you have a point. his choice of a lambo is not innocent, mid-engined cars are by definition more difficult to balance at the limit, they snap from one situation to another very quickly. On the highway, definitely keep your esp on. But on a twisty road, if you know what you are doing... The speeds are slower anyway, and you're braking before the corners, you balance the weight transfer, you're more in control than you think, and definitely more in control than when you're cruising on a highway.

[@pascalmpower7944]

For RWD cars, ESC would brake the inside wheel or the spinning wheel.

[@PepegaPig]

If there is a criticism of the handling, it’s that when you really start to lean on the 560-4 in a quick corner, the nose does have a tendency to run wide. A very well-timed lift will make the nose tuck in and possibly even allow a dose of oversteer with the ESP disengaged but, in essence, there’s a natural degree of understeer engineered into the chassis that mostly adds to the 560’s civility. Seems legit.

if you've ever drifted you'd know that letting go of your wheel will always straighten out the car unless you are past a holdable drift angle, it is simply the path of least resistance for the car to take. and that comment about not turning of your trac control at the end is BS. my car for example, a 2012 subaru legacy GT, has one of the worst traction control systems I've ever seen and it robs me of the control i need to save the car in very slick conditions, on dry pavement its reactions work well enough but in the slick stuff my TCS can be legitimately dangerous. if your car is "cheap" your TCS probably is too.

No it doesn't. 2005 STI's do not have any electronic aids apart from ABS. The closest to TC you have is the Auto setting on the DCCD since it varys torque bias front to rear. Sometimes a car will snap straight on it's own just because things went correctly for it to do so, not because an electronic aid kicked in. As long as the front wheels remain straight they will drag the back end in so long as you're not going really fast.

[@gulraizfarrukh]

Traction control is like.. when youre idle it reduces wheel spin at full throttle. It starts car it 2nd gear or so. Esp prevents the car from doodling all over the road once its outta balance.

[@stumpypetros2685]

I lost traction in my car on wet leaves going round a L - corner. Foot off accelerator, (NO BRAKE) followed skid with steering, took hands off steering wheel like Steve did when wheel suddenly snapped back to centre as the wheels regained traction due to car being same speed as wheels again. Drove away. Oh and that was in my trusty $1000AUD 1985 Toyota Seca Hatchback front wheel drive with 50 kg of tools in the back :P

i would have liked to have seen the ESP correct without you letting go of the wheel. when a "driver" panics, all controls are frozen in place, and/or the brakes come on. as a skidpad instructor, i have seen amazing things accomplished by ESP, but all the engineering in the world, can't overcome a rotational inertia that overpowers the grip of the tires. the most impressive automatic spin recoveries i've seen are from Mercedes. but if you throw them hard enough, they will spin violently.

Now make this with an Aventador. I'm curious of Richard Hammond saying it's easy to drive.

[@moomooproductions8735]

I could hear the sound of the grit on the runway tearing away the car

[@jaker3451]

Is this an LP-550-2 or LP-560-4? In other words, is it Rear-Wheel Drive or All-Wheel-Drive?

[@emilnordlund3174]

it's getting better every day

[@24AndyMartin]

after seeing one in real life I think it looks fantastic, especially in Orange.

Doesn't matter, the system will cut the power whatever the pedal position. With ESP on that is.

[@80PercentAshamedOfU]

who the hell turns off TCS @ 70 MPH?

[@DouglasGardnerTV]

[@facepalm5134]

I did the second version during winter in my '86 fiero xD lol

[@chaileeportraits]

I can use my ESP and you as my personal driver human ESP seems like you can control it even when it has lost control on the video

[@TheStallion234]

I know, its incredible how well these systems work
