traction choices
For a 2013 Camaro 2ss/rs L99 automatic with paddle shift which of the three traction options are best for street and for drag strip? Also which choice is best if using paddle and how many of you paddle shift as opposed to automatic shift?

Best option is to get a trans tune and let the tcm shift for you.

With longtubes and Corsa I can really get my car barking. For drag racing Vegas is right...a trans tune and letting the car shift itself is the best way.

I never paddle shift at the drag strip.
Competitive Mode is best: two taps on the TC button. Whether you are in drive or sport mode seems to make no difference when you are WOT, but I do use sport mode. |

At the drag strip, I turn all the nannies off, activate the line lock, paddle shift so I can keep it at the rpms I want for my burnout, put it back in Drive, stage, footbrake, then put it down.
On the street sometimes I mess with the paddles.
