ZL1 A10 Burnout Issue

I'm trying to do a burnout at the track. I'll push traction control twice and go into race mode, but the car will rev out to 3k and bounce between 3k and 2k and backfire a lot. I don't know if I'm not turning of TC correctly or maybe if the previous owner had something installed cause it almost sounds like it's two stepping. Is this normal? My tires won't even spin.

That almost sounds like its trying to put you in launch mode? I don't have an A10 but doesn't that, if turned on, activate from brake and gas at the same time?

Hold down the off button by the shifter until TC off shows on gauge panel. Burnout in manual. Start tires spinning in 1st and shift to 2nd before taking it up to 5-6k

I had the same issue, I believe it's because you are in race mode and it has its own traction mode maybe? When I reviewed my pdr, traction control was popping up after I put it in race mode. Maybe try regular mode and hold the traction button to turn off.

You need to hold the TC button down for at least 5 seconds. Give the link below a once over and familiarize yourself with the cars traction management.
