By the by, does anyone have any idea what the "SLIP" flashing & the car not revving is indicative of?

I'm too tired to search & I still need to shower.

I think it's the difference in tire sizes...

I was hoping it wasn't that. The car is higher in the front because of the 245s.

I wonder if the ABS fuse would stop it? ABS and VDC works for the same sensors I think.

When you get to Shreveport, you can probably get that tire from tirerack.com , I think they have a ware house there.

Well here goes. New day, let's try this no VDC thing.
