ABS FORD MUSTANG 2013 5.G Shelby GT500 Supplement Manual

ADVANCETRAC® STABILITY ENHANCEMENT SYSTEM
The AdvanceTrac® stability enhancement system provides eight modes
of operation for various driving conditions. The system integrates
braking, steering and powertrain systems using ABS, traction control,
EPAS and launch control optimizing the performance for all driving
conditions.
AdvanceTrac® Sport Mode
The AdvanceTrac® system provides an available sport mode specially
calibrated for the GT500’s unique performance characteristics. This can
be selected utilizing the stability control off switch. See theDriving
section of theOwner’s Manualfor more information.
Sport mode is not intended for use on public roadways as this mode
provides less AdvanceTrac® system intervention than when the default
ESC and traction control systems are on. Sport mode will allow more
spirited driving while the AdvanceTrac® system is still enabled.
