In trac mode mine disables traction control. I have plenty of logs showing tire spin with no torque management kicking in. Mine is the premium so on a basic Yes you have to disable advancetrac.

I have premium.

Dude your talking about two different things,yes u can turn off advance trac and trac control.But when it comes to the modes he is asking about,u have to be in either trac,snow/wet,normal or sport.When u put in trac mode it turns trac control off.But the car is in one of them modes.
Dude, the car in track mode DOES NOT fully turn off advance trac unless he turns it off, stability control remains on!! The OP should put it in sport + and turn off hold traction control up until it says advance trac off.

Nothing fully turns off advancetrac unless you pull the abs fuse or pull one of your wheel speed sensors. When you do that you lose abs as well.

Never said putting car in track mode turned off advanced track.Trac control off advance trac off and in track mode.Do u have the the toggles for different modes?I put mine in track mode for throttle responce only!!!!!.When i put mine in track mode it automatically turns off trac control.I then turn off ADVANCE TRAC CONTROL,which with the premium models is the most u can do with turning off trac/stability/clutch protection also which are all tied together.Now maybe guys without the toggles have different procedures but what i told the op is correct.

Absolutely!!!.And thats the reason why guys that use launch control with trac and advance trac off can sometimes run into bogging out when launching with slicks or dr.Also if u pull fuse 62 or whatever number it is u dont have linelock.Abs/trac control/stab control all tie in together.

Depending on your tuner yes,the trac/stab control can be tuned but not completely turned off.With a good tune and advance trac and trac turned off its very difficult if the nannies are doing anything.Guys with Manuals and use launch control can sometimes run into small issues depending on their launch method.

I know how to do this as I have done it a few times. (turn off hold traction control up until it says advance trac off.)

No to #3. Most folks get much better 60's by smashing vs holding with the stock converter. If I remember right the Ecu will pull timing if you try to foot break on the stock converter. I'll look over my logs to verify. But best 60's on stock convert is hold then smash the go pedal.
