You would have a button to disable it. When you press the button, a little light on the instrument cluster would light up reminding you that its off. The low trac light will come on on all F-bodies.

So I guess I don't have it because the low trac light does come on but I don't have TCS button. So I don't need that TCS reversal from SLP, right?
Can you do a burnout? If you can smoke the tires, you don't have it. It will nearly kill the engine if it's turned on (I have it) and you try a burnout. The low track light can be driven by the abs system seeing a difference in wheel speed and calculating that there has been a loss of traction.

Nope, don't need it!
On a T/A i think the button is to the left of the cigarette lighter. "low track" dosn't mean you have Traction control, my old T/A would set off the 'low trac' light whenever i'd burnout, or slid around, but it didnt' have traction control.
