I know with my Brother's GTP when he turns it off and guns it it will automatically come back on, was just wondering if it's the same setup for Trans Ams?

I do turn it off, I just wish my car was 12 lbs lighter and $450 cheaper (meaning, I wish I'd not found the last 6 speed car in town in 2002 and it had it on there).

Traction control won't make up for not knowing how to handle a rear-wheel drive car. That's what FWD's are for.

Even with TCS, you can still spin the **** out of the tires in the rain. I really don't see what it does. I do know that having it on at the track will up your E.T. by a second or more though.

But if its just a weekender car in say texas or florida then I would go out of my way to get a car without traction control
