Not brakes - that's abs. Tc kills power to the rear tyre when it senses a slip using the wheel speed sensor vs the front. Happens loads on track very successfully. Quote

S-Westerly Posted March 14, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 Reckon I can see how if you are pulling out from a junction with a brand new tyre you could lose it. Combination of tyre with less grip than expected, a bit of a lean and even a relatively gentle tweak of the throttle the tyre could just slide out from underneath particularly if there were road markings or a damp road or gravel. Ouch. Quote
