If the driver can’t tell whether it’s assisting or not, then the driver has not learned enough about sensing what the car is doing. So, what to do? I believe a driver should start track driving with TC on, and then when he/she can tell when the system is helping, then and only then should the driver turn it off. But so many cars have TC now, so it’s less likely that a driver will not have it as an option. In the perfect world all drivers would start track driving in low-horsepower, low-grip cars with no traction control (E30 BMWs, early Miatas), and the driver would learn car control at relatively low risk.
