So how exactly did he know that he "Beat himself" with auto traction off? How would you know that until after they matched them up?

Ran once with nannies on (blue lights) and ran with them off (red lights). Then they combined it to one run that they showed.

Looks like then nannies are over compensating on the washboard/choppy roads, other than that superb!
