Run with the tranny in sport mode, with suspension in Tour mode . Other than that, its just practice.

Turn it all off. It will severely inhibit 1/4 mile times.. Hold the button down for 10 sec til it says stabilitrak off

Stablitrac off? Why? It's not inhibiting anything aside from going into the wall if she REALLY breaks loose. Hit the traction button twice, that's all.
