Re: ATRAC question

As for USEFULNESS of ATRAC, I'd like to add that even while activated it sits there unobtrusively monitoring things UNTILL it is needed. It doesn't affect steering, or power delivery, and can be easily turned off if it's causing a hinderance and is not needed. I find it a great tool for even Mild (no wheels in the AIR) trails when conditions are very slippery, like SNOW/ICE, wet Grass/leaves etc. There have been a few occations, while climbing twisty slippery hills where ATRAC has been there to help out and allowed me to make a moderately challenging climb look EASY while others, with capable, but non-locked, non-electronic'd trucks have to pay close attention, and work a lot harder... Basically it's a great little "get out of jail free card" that can be played anytime you want to. Especially when youre right on the threshold of spinning a wheel, losing momentum and stopping your ascent, or worse, sliding backwards down a slippery hill.
