Traction Control Possibly Kicked In?

2447 Views 25 Replies 8 Participants Last post by  Chancey
Hello all! Curious if anyone else has any experienced this: from a rolling start and about 3/4 power the car was performing as expected and then suddenly around 90ish mph (not sure what gear) the power just dipped, almost like a missed shift or something. Anyone else had this happen?

It is especially likely in auto mode, as the least bit of tire slippage kills power when in default/ auto.
Makes total sense. So in Sport or Track that would not be the case?
Track has no stability or traction control. (Can spin freely)

Sport has no traction control, but retains stability control (spins in a straight lie, but if it drifts sideways stability control kicks in minimizing spin)

Auto mode maintains full traction control and stability control (least bit of spin or sideways motions and computer kills the power)

I think you need to flip your description of Sport and Track. It is in Sport Mode that drifting is done. Stability control is very active in Track Mode for obvious reasons. Some of my fellow lappers believe lap times can be quicker by releasing the Track Mode stability/traction hold backs.
