TURN THEM OFF! I had to turn off my 2LT when going to stage because something was on the track. When I turned it back on I forgot to turn off the nannies... I usually launch around 2500 rpm and it was lugging at 2000 rpms. I was like oh shit i must have screwed something up with the car lol my RT was .850 because when I floored it it sat there just staring at me ha ha

Trust me. Turn them off. There is no comparison.

First thing I do when I get in car. Everything off, unless it's wet out of course.
