Oh yeah, know the feeling. Sometimes it's just fun to boot it and wait for the TC to kick in whilst you fishtail up the road.
I have to admit this happens to me from time to time when I come out of my access road. When I have to turn right there's a slight incline and if I make a quick getaway whilst turning its sooooo easy to break the traction of the rear tyres, wait for TC to kick in then slingshot up the road!

I did go to
a quiet section of an industrial estate my private test track a while back and have a quick play with TC off ;D
I have also found when its wet, it lets you have a little bit of fun with TC turned on too which is nice. (Does in dry too with TC on, but I dont fancy new tyres just yet!) :o

6 pot of tractor power is good. Even when dry. Esp on those crap Avons I got from JamesV6CDX [smiley=evil.gif]

Yes, turning off the TC is fun but at the moment I'm just about on the limit for tread on the rear tyres. When I get round to changing them then I will be smoking my way to the tyre outlet of my choosing.
Having said that a nice bit of rain and a wet road is always good fun for breaking the traction, even with TC on, and then watching the TC light on the dash have a fit as it tries to sort out your heavy right foot!
