Question for Valve bodied guys

I see a lot of guys with Valve body modification can churp tire between 1-2 and 2-3 because the change is so quick and crisp.

However, what happen if you guys change gears during a turn?
Wouldn't it cause loss of traction due to adrupt gear change?

What I felt from palying with MM mode is that the speed of gear change is function of accelator position(which mean if I change gears when I press little bit, it would change slowly but if I change gears when I press all the way, the gear would be changed quickly). and I guess this is designed to prevent traction loss.

What do you guys think?

Yes, you definately will lose traction if shifting while on the gas in a turn. Especially in the rain, you need to learn how to prevent it or drive with it.

Hmmmm then what would be the prevention method for it?

The only manuever I can guess is changing accel position as soon as gear is changed.

Yeah I agree that I am not making a turn with WOT but what I heard is overall gear change speed is increased in MM mode, so wondering VB modification would churp tires even with half or 1/3 accel position.

If I'm in MM and its raining out and I shift while turning my car will kick out everytime. Sometimes it can be fun if you mean to do it, but you need to learn to deal with it when it happens and predict it.
