ABS/TC? Benefit or nanny?

[ammonman]

Thanks for the input guys. I think the ABS is very worthwhile for an inexperienced track driver like me. I'm more trying to gauge the value of the ABS-based traction control system. If the car is equipped with the brake-based traction control system does it have to be switched off when on the track to comply with the spec rules? If not, is the system beneficial or detrimental to performance? Does using it on-track tend to promote bad habits in new drivers?

Thanks

Mike
