Had Ladybug on the Racetrack




Had a opportunity to take "Ladybug" on the Track this past weekend at Texas World Speedway, Esc did not kick in once. Seemed to push a little in tight turns. 2.8 Mile road course

Smartfor2guy - It looks like you won the race!!!! Ladybug - great name - it really fits the look! I'm curious what pressue you had in your tires? Great pic! I haven't heard of any smart owner who has had the ESC kick in and what happened whe it did. Maybe someone will post their experience. Good luck and enjoy your smart!

I purposely got it outta shape the other day when it rained and the ESC kicked in and applied the brakes to the opposite wheel from the sliding one. It worked.
