Not sure what is causing it.

do you turn off all traction control? Not just hitting the T/C button. You have to hold it down for approximately 10 seconds.

It's definitely computer nannies. It's not the engine. I think it has something to do with wheel spin and traction control.
Exactly, as soon as I am in second the cut in throttle happens, and it a serious interference. I'm really glad I'm not the only one though

I was just pushing the traction control I had no idea about having to hold it. I guess that's why there is a manual haha
