The Camaro is a 6-speed. The traction control on it is much better compared to the Z but I very rarely see the light on the dash come on. Even with traction control off the car is very easy to launch compared to the Z. As for the roads here that some one mentioned, they do tend to be a bit bumpy and I would also say dusty (It is Vegas afterall). Doing a quick 2nd-3rd shift will definetly cause traction control to go on but it will continue to flash going up to redline. I've even done a 3rd gear rolling start where it kicks in as well. Perhaps it's the roads here and partially due to the stock tires on the Z. Either way it's one of the worse traction oriented cars I've had. Previously had a C6 Vette and that car was even easier to handle with regards to traction. With the Vette you really had to abuse it to get squirly while traction control was on. Then again I got spoiled by my previous WRX. That car was an absolute dream when it came to traction; wet or dry. |
