HI there,
thx2, if you are going in a straight line, The traction control is in.
If you are going on a turn, probably both.
Besttoyou, c4c5

On this note.... I was playing around in mine the other night. Put it in Comp Mode and was going down the road, floored it in 2nd gear and the tires broke loose... I then got a message on the DIC saying "Traction Control System Enabled".

Why? I turned off TC when I went to comp mode didn't I? Or is this the "abuse management system"?

I experienced wheel hop the first one or two times I launched the car with AH completely off.I am running 28psi's front and back and I think the key may be to find the right rpm to drop the clutch,or even instead of dumping the clutch,just letting it out harder,but smoother than normal driving at around 2100rpms.There is plenty of power to get a smooth wheel spin,even like that.

I had the same exact thing happen to me, 3-4 shift, was running strong, and then IT kicked in, and I just let off........I was PO'd........
If shutting down AH/TC is the only way to get around this, then so be it..............
If I wanted a governor, I would have bought a 1 ton...........
