I've driven both and it was much harder to overcome the TC system in the
Charger than the 05 Dakota or even the 05 Ram I drove and yes, I like to take
new cars on test drives ;). I was able to get the car to break loose a few
times but not really light them up.

I wonder if there is a cheat code? I was reading an article the other day
where someone found a cheat code in the Lexus IS to disable the TC system.

Posted on VWVortex Forums, here’s the Lexus cheat code:
”start the car with the parking brake on ….then foot brake twice….(keep the
foot brake down)….then parking brake twice (keep it down )and repeat till skid
light is on the dash…..it will reset when you restart the car”

If you could easliy shut that off, that would be almost too much fun.
