Default Where is the TCS button?

Hello, I really feel like a fool for asking this, but hear this. I bought a 1999 Camaro SS M6. I only had one day with the car because I had to come back to Iraq the next day.
I dont really know for sure if the car has TCS or not. I know that sounds odd, but I didnt get to drive it much. Where is your TCS button? If it was out in the open I would certainly have noticed it.

It is on the dash above the radio, next to the fog light button. Your car may not have tcs, mine doesn't. By the way thank you for what you are doing in Iraq. Freedom isn't free.

I believe it's labeled ASR and its above the radio next to the foglight switch. If you hit it, you will see 'ASR off" in the upper left hand corner of the dash.

Yep, for some reason it's labelled ASR on Camaros, instead of TCS like it is on Firebirds

Yes, Acceleration Slip Regulation. Basically a retarded way of saying traction control.
