Default Going racing tomorrow, TCS on or Off?

Going racing with my moms 03 accord V6? Should I turn the TCS on or off? It seems that it gets less power with it off but gets major wheel spin? What do you guys recomend?

TCS is a totally useless device for people who don't know how to drive. Turn it off.

Ive raced my accord and it is about dead. 16.520 at its best. . So I asked my mom and dad if I could race hers and they said yes. They dont care its on lease.

Yeah, I only have my permit. Ive been racing at the track for the last year now myself. I even stripped the interior on my 96 accord with no passenger seat and they dident ask. They only tell you too have someone in the car if you tell them your 15.

Straight line. I raced it today. If you guys want to see the results. Check out the accord forum.
