You don't.

LSD's are mechanical systems. You would need to physically remove it from your car in order to "turn it off".

Do you mean VDC (Vehicle Dynamic Control)? If so, there should be a button on your dash labeled "VDC". Press it.

You can't turn it off because there's no button for it. What you're thinking of (and the button you've seen but didn't think was right) is the VDC button.

Lotus prefers no LSD to LSD for their cars.

Thats because Lotus balances their cars and sets up the rear suspension to not give one tire favorable traction over the other. LSD upsets the balance in their cars and thus is NOT a beneficial addition.

A base Z cries for LSD, any other Z cries for a real LSD and not this vLSD garbage that we got.

how much of a difference does the LSD make in our cars? Wouldn't a better launch still decide the outcome of a race between a base Z and an Enthusiast?
