worth bearing in mind that traction control systems can't change the laws of physics!

V interesting thread - particularly timely read, as I pick up my F10 M5 tomorrow. Suffice to say, I wont be going near MDM for a long time !
Liked the description of MDM as the "Dukes of Hazard" button |

Sidebar - in high school I watched a guy pick up his brand new Viper and proceed to spin out pulling out of the dealership. He ended up straddling the median with the driver's side wheels and suspension badly damaged. Something like 6 miles on the car! |

I have the euro MDM coded and it's a ton of fun but you need to learn and understand your vehicle before trying to hit the throttle coming out of the corner. Too many variables that are not within your control.
I've been driving 700+ HP cars for a long time so I've learned a long time ago what I can and cannot do.

It was just a little less of a nanny, but the MDM on the M3's was much more intrusive than the MDM on the F10/12 M's

guys no tcs system can overcome physics, we have a 4200+lb car, you give it some throttle in a turn and get it sliding the tcs system can't make the momentum just disappear.

I had an E60 M5 and coded euro mdm on it, major difference from stock. I would drive with DSC off 80% of the time and mdm for the rest (Rain / Snow).
Normal mdm barely let you do anything. Euro mdm was great for the E60. Perfect balance, I never got sideways with it. If I were to compare the three modes and DSC off is 10/10: - E60 mdm (2/10) - E60 euro mdm (5/10) - F10 mdm (7.5/10) |

Managed to get the F10 M5 a little sideways (using the programmed M2, which is all on Sport +, with comfort steering & traction on) in the first 70 miles, but it felt very predictable. Will not be on traction off for foreseeable future... its a beast ! Lovely car and has exceeded my expectations ! |
