I used HP Tuner software to turn it off in the GTO as I forget to turn it off when I need to. In the truck, where the tires can't be spun over in the 5,800lb beast, I leave it on.

Mines always off with the 99+ PCM now. Don't have to worry about forgetting it on anymore, or spend the money on the module. It used to get me every damn time back when it worked, so I'm glad its gone.

What's Traction Control..

I won't even drive my car in the Rain..not that I can't drive, but it gets away from you real quick..expecially when the Stall locks up. It's alot of Torque hitting the road..

Friend of mines clicked on during his launch in a race.....cost him 150 bucks! Needless to say he got home and ripped the thing out of the port and cut the wires. Not sure if he got it tuned out or how he fixed that all i know is theres a nitrous purge and bottle opener where the button used to be!
