Disengaging ABS

Do you know how to disengage the ABS in the Exige S?
Short term......undo one of the front wheel speed sensor/clips at the disc....make sure you tuck it away!
Why?

The RS14 makes the ABS kick in more so I wanted to control the baking myslef by disengaging it.
I will have to see how it goes on Sat.

ABS has now been disconnected by removing the fuse (the red 10 amp fuse at no 12).

Do you notice a big difference? Ill have to remember to take allen keys fro track tomorrow. Went out last night and on bumpy b roads and it was really getting to me, whenever theres a gravelly surface its cutting and putting me completly out when entering the corner. Still had a bloody good time though

Ken, I am kind of used to fast cars without ABS as my XTR2 doesn't have one. Are you driving at KH tomorrow?

Hmmm...Have you seen the video on the Drivers Republic site, comparing the 2-11 / Atom / R500?
The 2-11 was the fastest round Anglesey by miles...(Over a second)...
And they attributed its extra pace (in part) to the ABS...They reckoned it was a very well judged system...
Is it the same setup in the Exige S?

May be the same......
I don't think the ABS on the Exige S is bad at all but the combination of the ABS, soft disks and RS14 isn't good as the disks can be distorted too easily (within an hour of track session).
