Like Ravens said,
when the traction control "gives up" you get the light show. With all that extra power, wou can get the tires spinning faster than TC/ST can compensate... I think it may be RPM related as well. Once you get to 4K with enough spin, I think TC/ST turns off.
Try this.. In first gear let the car idle down the road with your foot off the gas. Then just floor it.. it should fall flat on its face then start to pull... That is when the system is working to keep the car under control.
Hope that helps!
