I know that when I test drove the '10 US market Yaris, the manual had the on/off button but the auto did not. You car looks great BTW!! |

It`s a 09 but atleast in Europe its basically the same. Nobody here got a switch for TRC&VSC. We all have to do this e-brake, brake, ignition thing.

That said, I find it hilarious that a car a sneeze away from double-digit hp needs traction control. Glad I got the '09. Yes to ABS, pass to TC. -SAV

either urs isnt adjusted right or ur not pulling on it hard enough. i lock up my rear wheels when ever i want on what ever i want....
but the e-brake having the ability to hold the rear wheels.....what does this have to do with traction control removal?

Yeah. They are important. I'm sure using it for burnouts is top priority. -SAV

aggreed, this thread has gone off course of the OP, i do believe my hand brake is not tight enough for the things i sometimes do. yes, it hold the car in place while ur stopped. but i use it also to power slide, well, i tried in the yaris but just doesnt happen with these drum brakes (could tighten the cables). the crx with the rear integra disc conversion i am able to easily powerslide with the flick of the handbrake.
and yes, this is not conventional driving and this does not increase your track time in the least. but i do it to get laughs and many are impressed that a front wheel car can "drift" i guess.. we dont have the luxury of droping the clutch before a turn to get the rear end to slide, therefore we rely on the handbrake. ill end my handbrake talk now. seems like some rare models in 09 have the vsc/trac switch.. maybe earlier production of that year before the did away completly with that feature in the US models *shrugs* |
