Ok so tonight i was driving my car,98 firebird formula, harder then i do on a regular bases. i did some donuts and burnouts. after the last burnout it really didnt do a burnout and my abs light went on. i tired to turn my traction control back on but it wouldnt let me. after like five mins of driving around the light went off and it let me turn my traction control back on. i was wondering why it did that.

sounds like a ABS sensor is on its way out

ABS is not on the way out. It's just like being on a dyno, the back wheels are spinning faster than the front ones confusing the computer for the moment. And after a few minutes of driving it goes away, just like yours (xFormulax) did.

It has happened to me on the dyno a few times and has also happened on my Bogarts at the track and on the highway.

^^ yeah all my cars lights were going crazy last time my car got off they dyno. i just backed up and slammed on the brakes and they went away. but they have never came on after a burnout

thanks for the info guys the light for the abs went off and hasnt came back on and my traction control will turn on and off. i thought i fucked something with my abs senor too until i talked to my friend today with a ls1 camaro and he said he had the same problem when he does alot of burnouts/donuts
