Hi guys

Need some help with an issue im haveing with my 2014 vf clubsport, it has otr mafless underdrive pulley cam heads extractors full exhaust putting out 460rwhp basically ive taken it to the track a few times for powercruise and I originally had an issue with the torque management stopping me from doing skids both when i was on the brake and when i wasnt ( yes the traction and esp is definetly off) i have since had my tuner fix the issue of when getting on the brake so thats all fine but now whenever my ass end wants to kick out as in if i go to tip it in or drift a corner at the track it does nearly the same engine retard feeling it did with the brake torque management issue i had it will cut the engine and cough and splatter until it straightens up but in a straight line it has absolutely no issues pumping smoke, and it only happens whenever the ass wants to kick wich is makeing me think its a stability control issue, im hopeing someone can answer my prayers as its really frustrating haveing a good amount of power and not being able to use all of it
Thanks

Yeah, it seems to be in 'Comp' mode.

When I turn TC/esp off in my 2017 Senator,it is not 2 stage like my old Calais. It is all or nothing after holding the button down. While the Senator has Tour, Sport and Performance modes when TC/ESP is off the mode changes from whatever it is to "off".

Yea when i push it down for the 5 sec both esp and traction light both come on and stay on its definetly not that as it will still pump in a straight line no dramas only have an issue if the rear steps out enough to want to loop if you get what i mean
