I notice the TC on my Alero with the 3.4 is sort of like that too. But then, it's only "traction control" not ESP. On dry pavement, I can get wheel spin easily off the line or in the corners. It only cuts in after about a second or so. Having said that, the TC works great during winter time at low speed, you can feel the car is about to lose traction but the TC just keeps it going.

BTW, any of you with front heavy cars notice the tendency for mild oversteer on snow?
