Default C4 track drivers- do you use or disable ABS/ASR

On mildly modified C4's (brakes , suspension, and wheels race tires) are you leaving your ASR/ABS connected or disabling it? (95 coupe LT1)

I assume you mean whether or not you run with the ASR switch off, which has nothing to do with ABS. I run with it off.

Mine are completely disabled. The ABS unit is there for me to re-wire, but for now it's just dead weight.

Brakes are excellent though. DBA 4000s and Carbotech pads.

ASR off-WAY too invasive.

I leave the ABS on, never had an issue.
