Default LOW TRAC light with TCS off??

I wasn't too sure where to post this, so I figured this was best since its tech related.

*I am new to the platform in general*

2000 WS6

I just got home after a quick 2am mexico rip, car spun through first, I put it in second, I get pretty sideways and spin pretty hard almost all through the gear, then my tires gradually hook up and I keep pulling. I get to 120mph, LOW TRAC light comes on. This was after all my spinning and stupidity, which is what confuses me.

My main concern is apparently when that light comes on it applies brakes? I don't want the car braking when I don't expect it to.. lol. Especially that fast. Also, I didn't think it was supposed to come on at all unless TCS was on. (I didn't feel it brake or do anything at all, however)

Any ideas? To note though, it was 46 degrees and I have r888s all the way around. I also have brembo brakes up front, and 18x11 front wheels 275 with 18x12 rear 315s, if that's relevant at all.

The light came off right after I let out and started slowing down.

Any and all help appreciated!
