That is how the system works. when the TCS detects wheelspin it backs off a bunch of engine timing and backs throttle off (pedal pushing back). I also believe it can apply the rear brakes as well. I changed the tune on mine so it doesn't back off timing. Its a ton less intrusive and the car doesn't fall on its face when the TCS kicks on.

I agree with the brake application, as I forgot that I had the TCS engaged one time and when I tried to physically override it, I think I broke the ABS unit. I had low pedal and brake fluid leaking out of the ABS unit. Not a cheap fix....
