I have read about the rear end but cannot remember where. It really doesn't matter because the only way you can spin the tires is to brake torque. When you release the brakes, the ESP and other (helpfull) features stop the tires from spinning. Watch closely the burnout videos. When the driver lets off of the brake, the car slows momentarily while the traction control hooks up. There are buttons to disengage the systems but as I recall they cannont be totally disengaged. Sickening but true.
I believe you may be ill advised. SEems to be a common area of misconception for some reason. This directly out of the owner's manual:
Full Off
This mode is intended for off-highway or off-road use
only and should not be used on any public roadways. In
this mode, all TCS and ESP stability features are turned
OFF. To enter the “Full Off” mode, depress and hold the
ESP OFF switch for five seconds while the vehicle is
stopped with the engine running. After five seconds, a
chime will sound, the ESP/TCS Indicator Light will
illuminate, and the 9ESP OFF9 message will display in the
vehicle odometer.
