P.S., this is why Doug won't let me have my laptop!

The Grid system is only capable of making "on the fly" changes if it is equipped with an accessory that is explicitly illegal. As a bonus, that accessory will leave a "breadcrumb" in the system to let an inspector know that it has been used somewhat recently.

There are many standalone products that will do traction control that are more easily hidden and do not communicate their presence.
