Turning off the traction control in dry conditions will get you a better launch in either the manual or the DSG. The ESP can suck as much as 30% of the power if it detects too much throttle/about to spin the wheels off the line

Anyone with fairly good judgement of throttle control can get a better launch without traction control......in the dry.

totally agree, my manual feels so much quicker with ESP off, not just on launch but on coming out of corners it pulls so much harder!! drive around mostly with it on though uless i want to floor it     

don't think I've ever tried turning the ESP off - must try that later on my way home!

....In normal driving conditions on public roads (not racing off the line) I would seriously advise against switching off the ESP. At least not until you have done a proper car control training course. The ESP will save you from the hedge or French kissing a very solid obstacle when you least expect it.

Let us know what you think. It's like having a remap without having to

ONLY IN THE DRY REMEMBER!!!!!!

Just carrying on from this turning off the ESP. I havent yet tried it and I remember reading that if my front wheels begin to spin the power gets set to the back wheels. So how will this affect the r32 in the wet or dry?? will all wheels just spin away? or will the front ones just continue to spin on their own?? Im a little confused and dont want to be french kissing just anyone 

ANYONE?? ANYONE??

had a play last night, I didn't notice that much difference while driving, mind you I didn't push it very hard 
I did find that I could get a much cleaner start from a standstill, when I normally attempt a rapid start I can a bit of jerking and 'bouncing' type wheelspin, but with ESP off it just lets the wheels spin, but its much smoother and I found it easier to control by practising feathering the throttle and getting the right balance.  I was suprised when you consider I've got around 300bhp through the front wheels with the ESP off!
I think I'll definately be keeping it on for normal driving conditions, and definately in the wet, but I may be tempted to reach over and turn it off when I find myself sitting at the lights on a nice day!
