The LOW TRACTION also comes on when the ABS system engages, presumably you started breaking after the finish line?

I could see that happening.^ I have no traction control on my car and if you brake hard it will come on.

What are the tire size differences between your front tires and rear tires? My ABS always goes crazy when slowing down after the traps because of the tire height/ speed difference with my slicks on.
