1998 Toro 522xi "smart steer"

Howdy!

New here and sorry to start off with a question.

I just picked up a pretty nice Toro 522xi. 22hp Kohler Command, pwr steer, cruise with 48" deck.
It's got an incredibly annoying safety feature that I'm hoping to find a way to get around. The manual call it "Smart Steer". I call it "What the heck? Why are you doing this you stupid @*#**?!!"

The tractor slows itself down considerably any time the steering wheel is turned in order to prevent a roll over, etc. It's quite slow in a straight away and just agonizing when turning.

Anyone know of a clever way to override this system?

Thanks so much!

Mike
