When you use DRIFT MODE, ESP® is not available. Individual wheels could spin and you could lose control of the vehicle.
There is an increased risk of skidding and having an accident.
Only a highly qualified and experienced driver should drive in DRIFT MODE.
Be sure to read the safety notes and information on ESP®More.
