Why not just turn it off? Press the trac button on near the shifter.......and in the display you will see a TRAC OFF or something like that icon appear.....btw you have a SC399?? That musta been a hard find

you launch at over 5k rpm on an auto?? please tell me you are not "neutral dropping" her..
and i'm guessing by tcs you mean traction control system?.. either way, if your SC is stock it doesnt "launch" anyways.

LOL well it launches anyways. I can N. it and it works. Thats all that matters. Under 5k it stalls, grabs, jerks, then goes but doesnt peel out. So im guessin it has tcs. There is no button. If there was that would have been the first thing i did.

wow neutral drop auto 5.5k launch. I give your car 3 minutes left to live.

It's a auto, get a manual swap, a manual car or dont launch it at all. I had a friend, 2000 Corvette. Neutral drop on the tranny 3.5k rpm, giant puddle of oil on ground, towed to dealer. Huge replacement bill.
