As Lude-Dude said, it's suicide to drive with faulty 4WS on a track.

You can pull the code to see what's wrong, my bet is just a faulty wheel sensor throwing out the ABS and 4WS.

its common sense dont use something if its faulty, and with cars this should be priority

The rear track rods arent physically locked when it's in fault mode. They can move.

As others have said, if ABS and 4WS are not working, it'll be an ABS sensor. Just fix that is my advice

no its only held by magnets so wont hold fast under cornering and it will try to kill you

we have allready went round the track and it seemed ok. there is a 115 mph corner

you lads are scarying me now so were do i get a 2ws sub frame from and what is it out of. is it easy to install

most 2 litre ludes 4th or 5th have 2ws subframes

just pull the codes and fix the issue its never expensive to fix it it will be a sensor or something
