With just the right amount of play a good traction control system can prove a benefit on the track, especially with cars that suffer traction issues exiting a corner. Where as stability control system affect the car's balance and attack of a corner and thus ultimately affect it's corner speed, traction control only affects the amount of traction the driven wheels receive. This would allow less experienced drivers to lean on the power more and more without really affecting the lap times.
The ultimate system would be an adjustable one where you have the control to alter how much of a safety net is available.
What's your thoughts on such a setup?

I dont understand why a stand alone TCS cannot be offered without stability control.That might actually be of some use on track unlike MDM.
