traction control

I have a 2010 g37 I know if you pull the stop llight fuse it cancels traction control and everything to be able to do a burnout. What I was wondering is there a way to put that fuse to a switch so I dont have to pull it everytime

Brake stand/burn out

here you go. i did this over the winter and had fun on winter tires. lol
hopefully my explanation will make sense or pics should explain itself.
- pic 5 & 7 - i broke the fuse and then solder wire in each end. you can see from the 2 pics that i had to remove some of the plastic in order to have room for soldering and that i can only solder on top of the leads and if i solder too close to the middle the fuse will not fit back in
- i use a inline fuse holder and attached it to the switch.

for now i just have the cable/switch by the left side of the seat. i will be switching switch to a flip cover style switch when i have time and put it next to vdc & trunk release.

Any idea what happens if you do this on an AWD car?

Does the car then run SOLELY with AWD and no other nannies?

Ive always been curious how the car would act with only the AWD system to keep it in line.
