Re: car nose dives

Could it just be bogging, if it's a manual transmission car? I know I had a similar feeling at first when I tried to run my T/A. I would shift into the gear and let off the clutch and just feel it drop or "bog" before it took off again. Then I started learning how to powershift and all was good.

Re: car nose dives

Could just turn on traction control every time you turn off the car, that way you remember to turn it off when you wanna have some fun.

Re: car nose dives

SLP used to make a module that reversed the function of the traction control switch. It made it finction so that TC was always "off" when you started the engine, and TC would only work if you turned it "on" with the switch. Might want to check around and see if anyone makes a similar module. Or check SLP, but they have totally abandoned the LT1 products.
