I learned to keep the traction control on especially in traffic. I experienced this sort of out of control about 3 weeks ago driving home after work. For some reason I turned the traction control off when leaving work after 5 pm getting on to a major traveled road and everyone seemed to be slow driving at not even the speed limit so I got frustrated. I hadn’t driven the ZL1 in about 2 weeks mostly driving my truck and ‘70 VW to work and around punched it trying to get around this slow poke and the ass end got sideways almost hitting the car I was passing and another one in the other lane(4 lane) but that supercharger was singing and my heart must have missed a couple of beats knowing I was very lucky not causing a major accident on a very busy street. So now I keep the traction control on at all times in traffic which I normally did before anyway just that one day was different.
